Question

In what biome do we live in?

Answer 1

Humans can be found living in virtually all types of biomes.

Explanation:

Humans can be found living in virtually all types of terrestrial biomes.

Due to technological advancements, humans have been able to modify their environment and adapt to many different places. Clothing allows us to stay comfortable in areas with cooler temperatures. Building shelter allows us to stay cooler in dry, hot areas. In areas where the amount of vegetation is limited, tools have allowed us to hunt.

However, certain biomes are more popular for human habitation than others. Very few people live in the tundra . The map below shows population density from 1990 to 2015 with areas in bright green having higher density, or more people, than areas in blue.

Humans in Meghalaya, India have created living bridges out of rubber tree roots because other materials rot so quickly due to the extreme precipitation of the region (see here). The Nenets live within the Arctic Circle, herding reindeer and relying on them for food, shelter and clothing (see here)
