Ecosystems have many components that exist together in a balance. When any component in an ecosystem changes it can influence the other parts of the ecosystem. These changes can have a positive or negative impact on the ecosystem. Some of these changes are due to humans using resources within the ecosystem. Today many communities are doing things to help protect and restore resources in ecosystems through wildlife conservation programs, sustainable farming practices, and city recycling programs.
