How can people influence mechanical weathering?
Well, it's pretty simple. Mechanical weathering is the type of weathering in which rock is physically broken into smaller pieces, so a lot of things we do cause weathering. For example: mining and construction. When we mine, we slowly break down the earth's crust. Same goes for construction. Even walking across a road of gravel causes mechanical weathering!
