First, given that the purpose of many technologies is to exploit, control, or otherwise "improve" upon nature for the perceived benefit of humanity while at the same time, the myriad of processes in nature have been optimized and are continually adjusted by evolution, any disturbance of these natural processes by technology is likely to result in negative environmental consequences.<sup id="cite_ref-191" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-191"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>191<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Second, the conservation of mass principle and the <a href="/wiki/First_law_of_thermodynamics" title="First law of thermodynamics">first law of thermodynamics</a> (i.e., conservation of energy) dictate that whenever material resources or energy are moved around or manipulated by technology, environmental consequences are inescapable.

However, adverse environmental and sociological impacts have also been identified during and after many reservoir constructions. Although the impact varies greatly between different dams and reservoirs, common criticisms include preventing sea-run fish from reaching their historical mating grounds, less access to water downstream, and a smaller catch for fishing communities in the area. Advances in technology have provided solutions to many negative impacts of dams but these advances are often not viewed as worth investing in if not required by law or under the threat of fines. Whether reservoir projects are ultimately beneficial or detrimental—to both the environment and surrounding human populations— has been debated since the 1960s and probably long before that. In 1960 the construction of <a href="/wiki/Llyn_Celyn" title="Llyn Celyn">Llyn Celyn</a> and the flooding of <a href="/wiki/Capel_Celyn" title="Capel Celyn">Capel Celyn</a> provoked political uproar which continues to this day.

There are proven and effective policies that strengthen human rights while lowering fertility rates and lessening the impacts of population growth on GHG emissions and biodiversity loss. These policies make family-planning services available to all people, remove barriers to their access and achieve full gender equity, including primary and secondary education as a global norm for all, especially girls and young women (Bongaarts and O'Neill 2018).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=BioScience&rft.atitle=World+Scientists%27+Warning+of+a+Climate+Emergency&rft.date=2019-11-05&rft_id=info%3Ahdl%2F1808%2F30278&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1093%2Fbiosci%2Fbiz088&rft.aulast=Ripple&rft.aufirst=William+J.&rft.au=Wolf%2C+Christopher&rft.au=Newsome%2C+Thomas+M.&rft.au=Barnard%2C+Phoebe&rft.au=Moomaw%2C+William+R.&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Facademic.oup.com%2Fbioscience%2Fadvance-article%2Fdoi%2F10.1093%2Fbiosci%2Fbiz088%2F5610806&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AHuman+impact+on+the+environment" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-5"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-5">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCook2016" class="citation journal cs1">Cook, John (13 April 2016). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1088%2F1748-9326%2F11%2F4%2F048002">"Consensus on consensus: a synthesis of consensus estimates on human-caused global warming"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/Environmental_Research_Letters" title="Environmental Research Letters">Environmental Research Letters</a></i>. <b>11</b> (4): 048002. <a href="/wiki/Bibcode_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bibcode (identifier)">Bibcode</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016ERL....11d8002C">2016ERL....11d8002C</a>. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1088%2F1748-9326%2F11%2F4%2F048002">10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/048002</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/Hdl_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hdl (identifier)">hdl</a>:<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://hdl.handle.net/1983%2F34949783-dac1-4ce7-ad95-5dc0798930a6">1983/34949783-dac1-4ce7-ad95-5dc0798930a6</a></span>. <q>The consensus that humans are causing recent global warming is shared by 90%–100% of publishing climate scientists according to six independent studies</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Environmental+Research+Letters&rft.atitle=Consensus+on+consensus%3A+a+synthesis+of+consensus+estimates+on+human-caused+global+warming&rft.volume=11&rft.issue=4&rft.pages=048002&rft.date=2016-04-13&rft_id=info%3Ahdl%2F1983%2F34949783-dac1-4ce7-ad95-5dc0798930a6&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1088%2F1748-9326%2F11%2F4%2F048002&rft_id=info%3Abibcode%2F2016ERL....11d8002C&rft.aulast=Cook&rft.aufirst=John&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fdoi.org%2F10.1088%252F1748-9326%252F11%252F4%252F048002&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AHuman+impact+on+the+environment" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-6"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-6">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFLentonXuAbramsGhadiali2023" class="citation journal cs1">Lenton, Timothy M.;

Just as it is incorrect to insist that a large global population is the sole underlying cause of biodiversity loss, so too is it naïve and incorrect to claim that high consumption alone is the cause, and so forth.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Frontiers+in+Conservation+Science&rft.atitle=Response%3A+Commentary%3A+Underestimating+the+Challenges+of+Avoiding+a+Ghastly+Future&rft.volume=2&rft.date=2021&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.3389%2Ffcosc.2021.700869&rft.aulast=Bradshaw&rft.aufirst=Corey+J.+A.&rft.au=Ehrlich%2C+Paul+R.&rft.au=Beattie%2C+Andrew&rft.au=Ceballos%2C+Gerardo&rft.au=Crist%2C+Eileen&rft.au=Diamond%2C+Joan&rft.au=Dirzo%2C+Rodolfo&rft.au=Ehrlich%2C+Anne+H.&rft.au=Harte%2C+John&rft.au=Harte%2C+Mary+Ellen&rft.au=Pyke%2C+Graham&rft.au=Raven%2C+Peter+H.&rft.au=Ripple%2C+William+J.&rft.au=Saltr%C3%A9%2C+Fr%C3%A9d%C3%A9rik&rft.au=Turnbull%2C+Christine&rft.au=Wackernagel%2C+Mathis&rft.au=Blumstein%2C+Daniel+T.&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fdoi.org%2F10.3389%252Ffcosc.2021.700869&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AHuman+impact+on+the+environment" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-44"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-44">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFDasgupta2021" class="citation web cs1"><a href="/wiki/Partha_Dasgupta" title="Partha Dasgupta">Dasgupta, Partha</a> (2021). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/957629/Dasgupta_Review_-_Headline_Messages.pdf">"The Economics of Biodiversity: The Dasgupta Review Headline Messages"</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. <a href="/wiki/UK_Government" class="mw-redirect" title="UK Government">UK Government</a>. p. 3<span class="reference-accessdate">.

Humanity must face the need to reduce birth rates further, especially among the overconsuming wealthy and middle classes. In addition, a reduction of wasteful consumption will be necessary, accompanied by a transition away from environmentally malign technological choices such as private automobiles, plastic everything, and treating billionaires to space tourism. Otherwise growthmania will win; the human enterprise will not undergo the needed shrinkage, but will continue to expand, destroying most of biodiversity and further wrecking the life-support systems of humanity until global civilization collapses</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Philosophical+Transactions+of+the+Royal+Society+B&rft.atitle=Circling+the+drain%3A+the+extinction+crisis+and+the+future+of+humanity&rft.volume=377&rft.issue=1857&rft.date=2022&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC9237743%23id-name%3DPMC&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A250055843%23id-name%3DS2CID&rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F35757873&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1098%2Frstb.2021.0378&rft.aulast=Dirzo&rft.aufirst=Rodolfo&rft.au=Ceballos%2C+Gerardo&rft.au=Ehrlich%2C+Paul+R.&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC9237743&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AHuman+impact+on+the+environment" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-sciencedirect.com-50"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-sciencedirect.com_50-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFvan_der_WarfPetit2002" class="citation journal cs1">van der Warf, Hayo; Petit, Jean (December 2002).
