Human Interference • Solutions • More protected areas • Limit tourism • Limit construction • Negative • melting permafrost • Oil spills • smog clouds
the tundra most impacted biome, maybe it is. • Most people don’t know about the tundra biome, I didn’t . • More people should know about the tundra ,it is all over the world, everyone makes it melt. • Going to and from school or work everyday in different cars, the tundra melts more. Conclusion Thank you
