Environment - January 2007

When I buy a bag of chips at sea level, and take them up to the mountains, the bag is swollen. I get why that is. However, when I purchase a bag of chips from a store in the mountains, those bags of chips are not swollen. Why is that?

Air leakage over time seems to be the obvious response, but I don't think this can be the case, otherwise how can the chips stay fresh if the bag isn't air tight?

Are they? I need to answer a question:
Why is it sometimes difficult to know when human beings should or shouldn’t interfere with the natural processes that occur in an ecosystem?

I am thinking of using earthquakes as an example. That people cannot interfere with it since it is natural. If it isn't part of the ecosystem, do you have any suggestions for an answer?
