Central Question: How can other natural forces (Fire and Ice) have an effect on speciation?

Guiding Thought Question: Should humans intervene and interfere in natural events, such as wildfires, or should they allow them to take their course? Explain your reasoning.

Today's Learning Objective: Students will examine the processes through which fire and glaciers can change and develop an ecosystem.

I think that humans should intervene because we have caused so many other disasters that have wiped out species. So now natural disasters which would have been okay are now destroying more species than it should because us humans have already destroyed many animals.

it depends becase most of the time forest fires are benificial but if they start getting out of hand and if they are spreading at a rapid and dangerous pace then people should have to step in

Depending on the severity of the situation. If it is detrimental to the environment, causing many problems, then yes I believe we should intervene. If it’s something that may benefit an ecosystem I say no we should not

If a natural event occurs in an uninhabited area then I do not think humans should intervene but other than that, humans should intervene because we have caused lots of climatic changes.

In my opinion humans should not interfere with natural events such as wildfires and floods and should let nature take its course. humans should only interfere if it threatens human life or complete devastation of an ecosystem in extreme cases.

They should intervene inky when nesecary like when a natural phenomenon threatens people. If the interfere to much then that phenomenon will not control whatever species they should control.
