Human-Environment Interaction
By Luke Bailey

• There are many ways that the people in the
  Bahamas affect and interact with the environment.
  Two big ones are fishing and tourism which
  pollutes the water. Fishing is a big industry in
  some of the Bahaman islands it produces lots of
  money for making the islands tourist attractions
  and hotel resorts like Atlantis. With all of
  the Cruise Liners that come in and out every day
  its polluting the water around the islands
  killing lots of fish making the fishing industry
  go down. Another Human Environment Interaction
  in the Bahamas is the chlorine runoff into the
  salt water killing even more fish around the
  islands. Now the fishing around the islands isnt
  as popular.

  The Bahamas is made of 29 islands. The Bahamas
