Human Environment InteractionWelcome to the Bahamas! We are the

largest tourist economy! If you are planning to go there, you might want to consider bringing some stuff to adapt to the environment. You will probably want bring light clothing, and flipflops, also it’s hot there, so you probably want to bring sunscreen, and a bathing suit. Since we are the largest tourist economy bring a camera! We also adapt there by building houses so we can live in the beautiful Bahamas, and buildings. Buildings do destroy wetlands. Here’s something cool, through technology, scientists have changed the salt water to fresh water.WOW!!! Tourism does have a bad thing. We use boats which contributes to pollution, and coral reef decay.

You can swim and play with the animals there

PlaceHey people around the

world! We are going to start off by telling you about the landforms in the Bahamas! Generally the land is flat with one really tall mountain. It seems that it is a sub-tropical climate. In the summer time it is hot and muggy, in the winter it is cool and dry. Besides that it is usually warm and humid.

The islands of The Bahamas are actually “cays” (pronounced “keys”), which comes fromthe Spanish word “cayo,” meaning “island.”
