25 Dez 10001 Jahr v. Chr. - Agricultural Revolution

Beschreibung:

This was when humans shifted from hunting and gathering to farming and domesticating animals. Farming led to a huge increase in population because people had a more reliable food source.Humans started clearing forests to make space for farms, which changed landscapes. Soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and changes in natural water flow were some major effects.

Effects on Plants & Animals
Plants: Wild plants were bred into crops like wheat and corn, making them bigger and easier to grow.
Animals: Some were domesticated (like cows, pigs, and sheep), but they also became dependent on humans and lost some wild traits.

Effects on Air, Water, & Land
Air: Farming led to more carbon emissions, especially with slash-and-burn techniques.

Water: Irrigation systems drained rivers and sometimes caused flooding.

Land: Overfarming caused soil depletion, making some areas unusable over time.
