Intro to Cultural Anthropology
Cultural ecology is the study of how human societies adapt to their environments and how cultural practices influence these adaptations. This concept emphasizes the dynamic relationship between culture and the environment, highlighting how subsistence strategies, resource management, and social organization are shaped by ecological conditions. Understanding cultural ecology helps to reveal the ways in which societies respond to environmental challenges and the sustainability of their practices over time.
