Aspectos ecológicos de la evolución humana

This paper describes some of the ecological impacts that man has exercised on the nature. It is necessary to emphasize the responsibility of the man on the extinction of species that began with the colonization of Australia, continued during the Holocene and arrives until the present time. The domesticacion of plant and animal species was not homogeneous in the different colonized places. It was conditioned by the diversity of capable species to be domesticated in that ecosystem, which affected the degree of civilization achieved.
