  15. Info: http://www.ehow.com/about_4671904_ponds.html How do Humans affect Temperate Ponds? Picture: http://www.fcps.edu/islandcreekes/ecology/pond.htm Humans have been over-fishing for many years now, this seems to affect ponds all around the world. People also seem to throw a lot of garbage into ponds, which is polluting the water. That affects many animals that count on the fresh, clean water the pond has. This human activity is horrible and affecting animals in many different ways. At the moment this is only affecting the animals and the environment around it. But after a while this will start to affect humans as well.

  16. Prevention/Solution Info: http://www.ehow.com/about_4671904_ponds.htm Picture: http://www.canadianpond.com/0905e.html Humans could start having a limit for fishing instead for them to over-fish. This would start helping the environment way more because, there are other animals in ponds that survive on eating these fishes. We should also start throwing our garbage into trash cans instead of on the streets, ponds, ocean etc. because, if we keep throwing our garbage everywhere, we will eventually loose all this beautiful nature.
