• You have not given enough information. Why are we saying this without knowing what we are talking about?
• Affecting every part, even the parts we we haven%26#039;t explored and species we haven%26#039;t identified.
• ummmm how about we try -
  
  excess water usage - most of the time we only have water bans during the summer time ( yes right now in ga its been on for almost 9 mo ) but usually we run our water like crazy all months out of the year until we run too low - if we had constant restrictions we would be preserving water -
  
  land space - recycling - the only thing that should be put into land fills is non recycables and food products - why isnt recycling mandatory - we tear down more trees than we plant - why ?
  
  ocean water - from what ive been told growing up excess trash is dumped into the ocean ? why ? thats killing wild life - ( fish, turtles, im sure species have died or become endangeered becauses of things like these ) that is an effect in the enviornment i would think ( besides water pollution ) im sure the animals have a major role in our eco system whether its the consumption of one particular sea weed by one particular sea lion or fish that has become endangered and now that sea weed is over growing in another area which is why we no longer see this animal close enough to shore for our own consumption - ( just a long example i guess )
  
  there are a million things you can not be stumped - - - - -
• when we affect one part of the environment naturally the entire biogeocchemical cycle gets affected.suppose when one part of the foodchain suffers the other animals have to go through it too.thus it does not matter which part of the environment we are affecting but it does matter to see to it that we try to prevent it.
