Human Impact: Where Is It?


The Urban Naturalists have been assessing the impact humans have on the environment. We have discussed the possibilities of positive impact, such as recycling or trash bins in the public areas, signs to prevent people from feeding wildlife, and bike paths. We also discussed the effects of negative impact, such as littering, dumping into ponds/lakes and car emissions.

We spent our day at Roger Williams Park in Providence, RI, assessing 3 sits for both positive and negative human impact. Luckily, we found both!


Discussing the task for the day 


Checking out the Temple of Music. Would this be a sign of positive or
negative human impact?


Writing down notes on our assessment! 


How does the lake look? 


So many ducks and geese!
