      Humans, we have changed so much of the nature systems that keep our planet healthy that geologists named the current period of Earth the Anthropocene, which means the period during which human activity has been the dominant influence on climate and the environment.

      I agree with Connor, human population is at its peak, now more than ever and we have the maximum influence on the environment.

      We are. Our pollution and waste is damaging habitats and will make it more and more difficult for us to live comfortably if we don’t reduce our negative impact now.
