Clothes they wear, food they eat, money they spend, perhaps even outlook on life. I would think whatever it takes to survive as that's the most basic instinct.

Humans modify their environment almost with every activity we make. Cities and urbanization as a whole are man made environments. Some people still think a garden is a natural environment but it is also man made if it is a homo sapiens who decides which plants stay and which go. Plowing to grow crops modifies the previous environment. Mining or oil extraction change the setting.
So the real question is: can people preserve the environment?

I'll give you one salient example: The people of the Netherlands have constructed dikes around parts of the sea, pumped these areas dry and now live and work on them.
Amsterdam Airport ("Schiphol") lies 6 meters (20 feet) below sea level!
