PRESENTATION OUTLINE

MODIFICATION

IT IS THE WAY PEOPLE CHANGE THEIR ENVIRONMENT TO FIT THEIR NEEDS.

An example of modification is when people cut down trees.

The problem with cutting down trees is that it destroys some animals' habitats and it also destroys the oxygen we breath. A good thing about cutting down trees is that the lumber industry makes a good profit and having less trees creates more space.

A solution to this problem would be to limit the amount of trees cut for lumber businesses.

A bad thing about building highways is that it takes up a lot of useful land and also costs a lot to create. A good thing about building highways is that it is very useful for transportation.

An example of modification is when people build houses.

The problem with building houses is that they take up space and cost a lot of money to build. A good thing about building houses is that it provides a home for families and that they last a long time.

A solution to saving land would be to have a variety of different apartments and houses. Also, limiting the amount of land each house gets would be a good way to save land for the future.

A good thing about building factories is that factories provide many different supplies that are useful. A bad thing about factories is that factory smoke can pollute our air and emit chemicals that can hurt our ozone layer.

An example of modification is building hydroelectric power dams.

A good thing about hydroelectric power dams is that they provide electricity from water. A bad thing about hydroelectric power dams is that they are very expensive, take up space, and can disturb animals in the river.

I think the best way to get energy would be to use solar and wind power because it is environmentally friendly.
