How Much Damage Is Human Impact?
Human impact rating 8 we destroy the deserts by off-roading, military stuff like testing bombs, and mining. People are destroying the Desert with their experiments and turning land into industrial solar power generation.
What Are The Impacts That We Make?
When we drive our cars we destroy the vegetation and water mining from reservoirs can damage the environment and the animals that live in the environment. Trenching involved with pipelines of gas, oil, and water have made grounds unstable and almost barren to the point where there is no vegetation for the animals in the environment.
What Actions Are Being Taken?
In March 2000, the Center, Sierra Club, and Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility stepped in to initiate a revolution in wildlife and ecosystem protection across the California Desert Conservation Area, filing suit against the Bureau of Land Management and the Fish and Wildlife Service on behalf of 24 endangered species that had been hurt by poor land management.
