3. The countries of Southeast Asia, which vary greatly in their economies, are industrializing at different rates. They are, however, becoming more interdependent through trade. Rich in natural resources, Southeast Asia is a vital crossroads of trade. As the region becomes more urbanized and uses its natural resources to industrialize, it faces a variety of environmental problems. Chapter Intro 1

4. Section 1:The Economy The physical environment affects people and their activities. Southeast Asia’s physical environment—which includes fertile soil, warm climate, and rich mineral deposits—affects the economic activities of the region. Chapter Intro 2

5. Section 2: People and Their Environment Human actions modify the physical environment. Industrialization and economic development in Southeast Asia have resulted in the pollution of air, land, and water, and the destruction of valuable natural resources. Chapter Intro 3
