Ancient Greek settlements were isolated from one another due to the mountainous terrain, which made travel and communication difficult. Travel by land was dangerous due to risks like rocks damaging wagons and attacks by robbers. Sea voyages also posed threats like pirates, storms, and shipwrecks. To meet their needs, Greeks engaged in trade with other city-states and colonies in the Mediterranean region, exchanging olive oil and pottery for goods like grain, timber, and metal.

Humans can change their environment through activities like farming, mining, and ranching. They can also be changed by their environment. Some settlers in North America adapted to the environment by developing irrigation systems rather than changing locations. In the future, human use of natural resources like coal and oil could significantly warm the planet and melt polar ice caps, flooding many coastal cities by 2040 according to some climate models. However, many people are also trying to help the environment through conservation efforts.
