What are some ways that population growth has or technological advances have impacted the environment in your community? ?

Generally population growth and technology impact the environment by lessening "natural" environments and creating more "man made" ones. Often non-human populations (plants and animals) are affected by these changes and either adapt or die out in areas with increased population growth or technological advances. Think of places in your community where new roads have been built, where vacant lots have becoming houses, or where any kind of change to the "natural" environment has occurred.The movie Over the Hedgeis a simplification of this issue.There have also been more positive impacts recently, in terms of green energy (solar or wind power, for example) where technology has allowed for a reduction in the use of natural resourcesin certain communities.
