| dc.description.abstract | Man has been a factor in environmental change for at least 40, 000 years, since the late stages of the Pleistocene ice age (Knowles and Wareing, 1980). However, the scale of man’s impacts on the environment has accelerated rapidly since the Industrial Revolution. As a consequence, it is very difficult to define the term natural environment because so many parts of what is generally - < taken to be natural environment, such as vegetation and animal life, have been so greatly altered that they might be considered man-made or cultural landscape. These changes have been brought about as a result of man’s attempts to modify the earth’s surface to increase its capacity to support him, and to satisfy his increasingly large range of needs and desires. Cultural landscapes thus, reflect the socio-economic aims and the technical abilities of any people living in any given area. | en_US |
