Running Head: Human Behavior and the Environment
Introduction
The environment has an amazing ability to sustain itself. However, human behaviors interrupt
the natural environment and intimidate environmental sustainability. Nature has an automated
way of taking care of itself (Scarr S, 1996). You will also see that wastes, such as animal
droppings, fallen leaves, and decaying plants, are all recycled back into the environment to
improve and maintain future life. Unfortunately, the humans have a way of interfering in the
concerns of the natural environment. Now in present time human behaviors greatly impact on
environmental sustainability, including population growth, lessening of natural resources and
create pollution (Scarr S, 1996). The natural resources to be obtainable for future generations,
humans must need to preparation some degree of environmental sustainability, which is
identified as the reliable interaction with the environment to evade degradation or depletion of
natural resources and allow for enduring environmental quality.
Human Behavior and the Environment
The environment is a good recipient of the human behavior. In this situation this behavior can be
very positive, as in the case of noise pollution and in the case of green fuel negative or
alternatives. On the other hand, human behavior is not all time simple when examining the
source. Now some points of input are present, environmental cues is being one of them. In the
environment cues are the environment that express important information or cause an affective
reaction (Scarr S, 1996). How a human impacts and react the environment is determined by the
message and the cues they express.
