Modifying the Environment:
We modify environment constantly to fit our needs. In this case it's for mobility, to help us access a beautiful environment to hike through. Humans added a board walk so walking by the swamp would be easier.
Adapting to the Environment:
Everyone in the world adapts their clothing for the weather. If it's hot you wear shorts and a tee-shirt. When it's cold and snowy like in the photo, people generally wear winter jackets and toques.
Depending on the Environment
Usually most people use a dyer to dry clothing, but sometimes we depend on the sun to heat and dry clothes. Like in this photo i'm drying my bathing suit and towel. Also we depend on lakes to do things such as; swimming, kayaking, paddling boarding and canoeing or else we wouldn't be able to do those things.
