How are occupations and lifestyle of people related to natural conditions?

The whole life of people, their economy and culture are connected with the surrounding nature. A person’s ability to work and his life expectancy depend on air, water and food. In this interaction, humanity is primarily interested in natural conditions for the development of the economy. When we talk about natural conditions, we represent a set of properties of the nature around us that affect the way of life of a person. Topography, climate, soil and plants are usually considered as natural conditions. For example: fishing, hunting, mining, construction of hydroelectric power plants.
