Titel 3 8. Human systems and resource use

A variety of models and indicators are employed to quantify human population dynamics. Human population growth rates are impacted by a complex range of changing factors.

The renewability of natural capital has implications for its sustainable use. The status and economic value of natural capital is dynamic.

Solid domestic waste (SDW) is increasing as a result of growing human populations and consumption. Both the production and management of SDW can have significant influence on sustainability.

Human carrying capacity is difficult to quantify. The EF is a model that makes it possible to determine whether human populations are living within carrying capacity.

Titel 4 7. Climate change and energy production

There is a range of different energy sources available to societies that vary in their sustainability, availability, cost and socio-political implications. The choice of energy sources is controversial and complex. Energy security is an important factor in making energy choices.

Climate change has been a normal feature of the Earth’s history, but human activity has contributed to recent changes. There has been significant debate about the causes of climate change. Climate change causes widespread and significant impacts on a global scale.

Mitigation attempts to reduce the causes of climate change. Adaptation attempts to manage the impacts of climate change.

We will finish the chapter with an excursion where the students will use their knowledge on climate change in general as well as research and gather data from a real life example of a climate change adaptation strategy in Kokkedal.

Titel 6 4. Water+aquatic food production systems+societies

The hydrological cycle is a system of water flows and storages that may be disrupted by human activity. The ocean circulatory system (ocean conveyor belt) influences the climate and global distribution of water (matter and energy).

The supplies of freshwater resources are inequitably available and unevenly distributed, which can lead to conflict and concerns over water security. Freshwater resources can be sustainably managed using a variety of different approaches.

Aquatic systems provide a source of food production. Unsustainable use of aquatic ecosystems can lead to environmental degradation and collapse of wild fisheries. Aquaculture provides potential for increased food production.

Water pollution, both to groundwater and surface water, is a major global problem, the effects of which influence human and other biological systems.

Titel 7 5. Soil Systems and Society

The soil system is a dynamic ecosystem that has inputs, outputs, storages and flows. The quality of soil influences the primary productivity of an area.

The sustainability of terrestrial food production systems is influenced by sociopolitical, economic and ecological factors. Consumers have a role to play through their support of different terrestrial food production systems.
The supply of food is inequitably available and land suitable for food production is unevenly distributed among societies, and this can lead to conflict and concerns.

Fertile soils require significant time to develop through the process of succession. Human activities may reduce soil fertility and increase soil erosion. Soil conservation strategies exist and may be used to preserve soil fertility and reduce soil erosion.
