Human activities can affect the ecosystem through pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species, overexploitation of Natural Resources, and climate change. These activities can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem, leading to negative impacts on biodiversity, water quality, air quality, and overall ecosystem health.
We affect the ecosystem in many different ways. Here are a few examples and scenarios:
*We destroy about 150 acres of forest, every minute. You can only imagine how much damage this alone does to our planet.
*Because of our technology, we create a lot of waste. Some of it comes in the form of radioactive materials, some come in the form of other non-recyclable/slow-recyclable material like plastic and aluminum discarded into nature every second and another form is the many tons of hazardous materials we pump into the atmosphere every second.
*Because of our activities, about 16 species go extinct every day, never to be seen again.
*Because of all the fishing we do, a lot of aquatic lifeforms are being killed off, either because we catch and eat them, or because we catch and eat their natural food which is/will produce a reaction that will destroy all aquatic life since it's extremely delicate and a lot of the species depend on each other to survive.
***The case on Global Warming still needs to be researched more thoroughly. As of now, it is unclear if we are causing it or not, evidence is pointing towards us NOT being the cause of global warming. If we are indeed the cause (which is of course speculation at this point), then we are also responsible for transforming thousands, if not millions of acres of habitable land to desert every day and we would also be responsible for the melting the polar caps.
These were a few examples and they were extremely over-simplified since your question is extremely broad and would need an answer consisting of a few million words to fully address. I hope I have given you enough information.
Mount Hood would be impacted by volcanic activity, such as eruptions or ash plumes. In addition, environmental factors like snowfall levels, glacial melting, or forest fires could also impact this iconic volcano. Human activities such as logging, mining, and tourism could also affect Mount Hood and its surrounding ecosystem.
One factor that can affect the populations in an ecosystem is that, if an ecosystem had owls with no predators, the owl population would increase and eat all the mice in the ecosystems. The population of the mice would decrease more and more.
You would expect to find greater biodiversity in a natural ecosystem compared to a human-made ecosystem like a farm or garden. Natural ecosystems have evolved over time to support a wide variety of species and interactions, whereas human-made ecosystems are often more simplified and managed for specific purposes, which can lead to lower biodiversity.
An ecosystem is considered sustainable when it can maintain its balance and functions over time without any significant external interference, such as human activities. Key indicators of a sustainable ecosystem include biodiversity, natural resource availability, and ecological resilience to disturbances. Monitoring these factors can help determine the overall health and sustainability of an ecosystem.
Ecosystems provide essential services to humans, such as clean air, fresh water, food, and resources for medicine. They also regulate the climate and provide recreational opportunities. Human activities can disrupt ecosystems, leading to negative impacts on our health and well-being. Overall, a healthy ecosystem is vital for supporting human survival and quality of life.
Ecosystems in that area COULD die out. With that if they had a food source in that ecosystem they would loose it which means that they would have to import it.
water quality would be worse
That would be human beings.

secondary consumers
a permanent band on the fishing of whales,dolphins and sharks would affect the ecosystem in that fish is the main source of food for all three. if they over populate the ecosystem then there will be a short fall in fish which well eventually leads to fish shortage.

how would uncontrolled cutting of pine trees
smoke meth.
We would have too many nuts and insects or anything that squirrels eat!
