Human-Environment System Web

        The core Idea behind this web is the human-environment system that is set up here in India. It all starts with the Industrialization of the city, which man interacts with the environment to create fuel and technology. This prosperity brings in the younger population looking for jobs and success, leaving the outside areas poorer and emptier. Due to the lack of money, most people use wood fires to cook, which has many negative effects. Vidya Sagar wanted to make an impact on this human system by providing the poorer areas with fuel for proper stoves. While being environmentally friendly, he was able to make factories that used one of the area’s abundant sources, which was cow dung. By doing this he successfully created a co-dependent system that was economically sustainable and environmentally friendly.

        Both this web and Marten’s web focus on the same ideas that involve fuel and food. The difference in this web aside from physical features is the specifics

  1. Hi Josh, I really enjoyed how clear and easy to read your diagram was. Even though it had some pretty complex connections the labeling on arrows and clean layout really helped me follow and take as much information from it as possible. We had similarities with how we both followed the effects of overusing wood resources on kids education and how it brought some money back to the poor rural areas outside of the cities.

    Good Rigor!:)
