How do urbanecosystems deal with human wastes?What other wastes are created in urbanecosystems? What is done with them?Chatstandardcontent65.0Urban ecoystems include cities and towns wherehumans live and work. An urban ecosystem isdifferent from other ecosystems in three ways.Firstly, humans are the dominant organism,not necessarily because there are more of them,but because their activities affect almost everyother organism in the food webs within thisecosystem. For example, a house is sprayed withinsecticide to kill cockroaches and other pests.However, this poison also kills spiders andpredatory wasps which control many insectpopulations.Secondly, almost all the energy inputs in anurban ecosystem come from other ecosystems.Food, electricity and fossil fuels have to besupplied to an urban ecosystem for its survival. Itis obvious how much your household relies onexternal energy supplies when there is anelectrical blackout for a number of hours!Thirdly, an urban ecoystem produces hugeamounts of wastes which are usually notrecycled. Unlike the matter cycle in Fig 8 on page271, the matter is often taken outside the urbanecosystem for decomposition. In addition, someof the wastes in an urban ecoystem are toxic. Forexample, oil discharged into creeks and riversaround factories can affect other organisms.(This information is on page 279 of your Textbook notes)Urban Ecosystemsstandardcontent84.0Most animals have predators andcompetitors in their habitats.
