Human Geography : The Way People Interact With Each Other And Their Environment

During this unit of human geography, I have learned so much about religions, ethnicities, and even culture. For example, I learned about the religion Islam and how it is a religion of peace just like the Hindu religion and as well as the Buddhist religion and much more others. These religions and some others have much in common whether they accept it , these religions and some more are all peaceful religions and all teach good morals and principles to the followers, everyone following footsteps of good people and their good actions and/or deeds. When I was reading chapter 7 ( ethnicity) I learned that ethnicity also has to do with culture and that the chapter before that one, we were reading about ( folk culture) and how it much ties in with

Chapter one in the book, Human Geography, gives a timeline of the changes that have occurred since the creation of planet Earth. The author, John Rennie Short, explained how truly powerful the earth itself is. It has the ability to wipe out humanity. We often blame nature when natural disasters happen, but perhaps the human race may have something to do with the cause of environmental hazards like volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, and earthquakes.

Scale- relationship between a specific place in the world, and the Earth as a whole.

Geography plays a big part in the history of Africa because it has made the continent the cradle of human kind wherein the discovery of human kind and the origin of many civilizations and cultures happens here.

Geology- It is the study of the Earth, which materials compose it, and how they work together, their processes (earthquakes, floods, erosion) and changes that they have gone through (mountains emerging, valleys, etc.). It also studies the organisms that had been on earth (fossils). It is a wide subject that can be subdivided into fields such as minerology, petrology and so on.

For example, the article that speaks about African migrants on their trek to Europe, would suggest that human geography is important to these migrants because they need an easier way to get from where they are to their destination. The reason that these people are making such a trek in the first place is due to poor living conditions in their homelands. Human geography can provide solutions to their problems. “A tide of humanity pours through the hills… to funnel migrants illegally from war zones and economic woes to opportunities in the West” (Bennet, Pogatchnik 1). Human geography is important to these migrants and their families to develop a better standard of living and to provide for a better life. People all the over the world can relate to the same importance of human geography as these African migrants. For example between 2005 and 2008 almost 75 million people were pushed into poverty due to food prices skyrocketing. This is a gigantic problem caused by an imposing reality. “… the world has been consuming more food than it has been producing” (Bourne Jr 1). This problem drastically impacts not only the impoverished due to rising food prices but also the middle and upper classes in developed and developing countries. Human geography plays a role in everyone’s lives when it comes to this problem. It must find a way for humans to interact with each other and the world more efficiently to provide

archaeologist- Its a scientist who studies human history by digging up human remains and artifacts.

The enviromnet plays a huge role in the way they live in Africa. Where a region is located has a very big impact on the activities that are able to take place there. If a place is too hot or too cold, certain plants are not able to grow there. Also, too much rainfall or not enough rainfall can help or prevent certain plants from growing. In Africa your specific location in regards to elevation, and the equator, the climate and the natural resources all play a role in Africa's economy.

1-Conquering poverty and disease must be a global effort. 2-If the nations of the world fail to lend a helping hand when tragedy strikes an individual country, the disastrous repercussions can spread globally. 3-Without outside funds supporting a country's economy during times of economic disaster, that country’s infrastructure might be at risk of a complete collapse. 4-When one country's economy falls, a domino effect can occur. 5-Thus, the global economy suffers when an individual country's economy falls. 6-Similarly, when disease ravages a country, that country's ability to care for its citizens becomes almost impossible. 7-Without emergency medical supplies from other countries and medical assistance from global organizations such

The life-sustaining bond of human beings with the land has a strong connection. Centuries have gone by… throughout the many years, humans have relied on the land to provide, evolve, help survive, and move forward with their lives. The land provides for humans in a non costly manner. The land provides humans free shelter. For example, Humans use the dirt we walk on to build shelter. The Earth provides humans natural resources, such as water from lakes, streams and rain. The land gives humans bountiful, healthy nourishing food. The Earth provides free healthcare for every living creature. The land has a bond with humans because the land provides natural resources, it provides shelter, and it evolves the human body.

Human geography is defined as “The study of interrelationships between people, places and environment and how these vary spatially and temporally across and between locations” (Castree, Kitchin and Rogers, 2013). It looks at how society shapes the environment and vice versa. Although physical geography and human geography are separate fields they both concentrate on spatial processes; physical geography more on the natural and physical sciences and human geography on the way in which human lives are shaped by processes in nature (Castree et al., 2013). A key principle of

Maybe some people will think human geography has no relation between physical geography. But I think human geography has a great effect on physical geography, and physical geography has a great effect on human geography too.
