Natural events like volcanoes, hurricanes, and drought can cause changes to ecosystems. People also impact ecosystems through deforestation for development, pollution from waste, and overpopulation putting pressure on limited resources. However, recycling, rebuilding destroyed habitats, and wildlife reservations can help protect ecosystems. Organisms adapt to changes by developing adaptations to new environments, moving to different habitats, or potentially becoming extinct if unable to adapt.
