Best Answer

People cut down trees' roots which make the soil stay on the ground. Polluting the air can make acid rain, which can destroy marble statues and stuff.

How do human activity contribute to soil erosion?

yes.Humans can contribute to erosion in many ways. One of which is when land is used for industrial agriculture such as: livestock, poultry, fish, and crops.An example of this would be when land is used for crops. When the land is plowed it disturbs soil and plant roots which cause the soil to become loose which in effect cause it to be more easily moved, i.e erosion.


What are some non examples of erosion?

non-examples of erosion would be fire or anything that does not have to do with waterice and Nanon.


Is valley widening deposition or erosion?

I'm not positive but i think its erosion cause it would just be like eroding the sides away.


What is the main cause of soil erosion?

Farmers could not farm a field for one year, or you could do something to help control flooding. You can also put ditches around the field to catch the eroded soil. Soil erosion's are caused when deforestation is followed. The roots of the trees holds the soil firmly underground to prevent soil erosion as well as to get nutrients for themselves from the soil. But when people starts to chop down trees erosion's will naturally follow up. Erosion is caused by the improper turning or improper treatment of soil, leading to unhealthy soil, which eventually lead to erosion. People can prevent erosion by taking proper care of the soil and tilling and turning it properly so the soil can stay healthy.
