Asked by Layla

For my homework assignment it is asking me to Choose a terrestrial resource issue discussed in Ch. 12-16 of the text. I know you do not have chapters 12 through 16. But I am wondering if Water Pollution or Land Pollution (i.e.: loss of land because of buildings and population increasing)

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

No. Resources are natural conditions that people can use to their advantage. Examples of terrestrial resources: trees, fertile soil, oil, sand, peat, gold, silver, etc.

So would solid waste be an idea. We have to present a slide show on power point regarding a terrestrial resource. The information in the book is stating Pollution and food waste problems. Would these be an idea.

Or would it be choosing soil as a resource and the problems being using land for solid waste?

Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. One problem in conserving soil as a resource is that we use landfills for solid waste products.
