Eutrophication - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Human activities, such as animal farming, can significantly impact the Earth's surface and water systems by introducing excess nutrients and waste runoff. This leads to eutrophication, soil erosion, and water contamination. Farmers are working on conservation practices to mitigate these issues, such
