Question
What human activities have affected the physical environment of North Korea and South Korea?
Solution
VerifiedDeforestation has several terrible effects. For example, deforestation has led to soil erosion in North Korea. Trees and bushes hold soil in place during the heavy seasonal rains. Without them, soil washes down the steep hillsides of the mountainous terrain. This depletes nutrients that keep the soil healthy and make the land fertile for raising crops. Deforestation also leads to flooding. Aside from the direct loss of lives and property that floods can cause, flooding can also pollute drinking water. This occurs when a buildup of mud and debris is washed into the water supply.
