essay assignment

Environmental geography
I am doing the topic environmental geography. This is about the environment and environmental or geographic luck. People have different jobs depending on their location and where they live. In America there are many different climates and people having many different jobs based off the climates and environments. Such as a forester will cut down trees because he might live in a forest. It states in the textbook that North Americans have reaped the natural abundance of their realm and have transformed the environment. We have many climates in North America in Canada it is very cold. In California and Texas it is very hot and in western side it is very mountainous and so on. We in North American are so lucky because we have almost every resource that we need. Unlike some people like new guineans where they live off the forest because that is what they live in.

Environmental geography- what people do for a living depends on where they live. There are many different forests different plants and animals were introduced to America. People adapt to where to live and we have a variety of climates
Population settlement- in north America more is a diverse population than 335million in north America. There is a megalopolis in the eastern shore with all the big cities like baltimore.
Culture diversity-Immigrants would take over the Indians and take their land.
Americans began about 400 years ago as they went west the either made friends with Indians or killed them

Homework for global warming
1.it is supposed that humans not mother nature are creating global warming. green house gases have increased and are mostly responsible for global warming in the last 50 years. according to Steenburgh he says "It is very unlikely that this warming is solely caused by natural processes". reduceing green houses world wide might help the environment but gives an advantage to steel producing countries.
2. the effects of global warming are that states like Utah are getting a lot warmer. global warming could cause flooding by heating up the antarctic and the arctic circle. this will cause the ice to melt and flood different places like California. or other coastline states and countries.
3.some different controversies that surround global warming are that DDT and nature especially cows waste are causing global warming. warming supposedly could also be caused by the tiny human contribution of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. this global warming started about 150 years ago past the little ice age that we had.

climate control
solar energy-most in coming energy is taken in by water. the green house affect is a natural process that results in trapping solar radiation.it is called the green house affect because it is like a green house.
latitude-lines are called parallels because they are parallel to the equator. latitude at north and south pole is 90 degrees. latitude measured north and south but runs east to west.insulation means different places have different weather.
world pressure systems-the earth has uneven heating which is caused by latitudinal differences and the arrangement of oceans. high pressure cells tropical zones get bigger in summer low pressure cells are caused by uneven heating in the earth. pressure systems in the north pacific produces summer and winter weather.
global wind patterns- the pressure systems causes global wind patterns. winds are always bringing weather across land and water.

They Know that Katrina is coming and they knew it was a killer storm. the winds were 120 miles per hour. the storm killed 60000 people. it started at a tropical storm with 39 miles an hour. when Ivan hit they had 1/3 of population hit and it wasn't that big. 90% of deaths come from drowning.New Orleans made a flood wall called a Levy which they put in after last hurricane that was a 3.300000 people stay because they thought it was not going to be that bad and thought it was only going to be as bad as hurricane Ivan. 1 day before Katrine was at category 5.The water broke through the levy's and hit the poorest regions the most. then the flood hit through the heart of New Orleans. and the levy's kept the water in.75% of new Orleans were under water 60000 houses were broken beyond repair.

Was very lucky to have these the furtowl crescent. They build houses and had a type of air conditioning. They made plastic from limestone at about 1000 decrees. Then that lead specialized workers to make steel. They began to do different jobs so not everyone is always hunting for food. New guinea was not able to develop food surpluses which makes people do other things like make metal. To fragile land for farming so they abandoned furtowl crescent. They reached Egypt which caused an explosion of civilization and there was so much food they had people making pyramids. Now we consume 20 tons of wheat a year in America. The new Guineans did not have the resources that we do.

They also believe it will spread the benefits of new ideas and new _______technologies_____ to all nations. One organization that loans money to nations so they can invest in business is the ____IFM________ . On the other hand, those who are anti-globalization say it is not fair, because the richest ______25______% of the world’s people consume _______75_____% of the world’s resources, resulting in _____inequalities_______ between “haves” and “have nots.”
Use the CIA Factbook to answer the following questions: In Luxembourg the life expectancy is ______79.33______ , the infant mortality rate is ____4.56 ________ deaths per 1000 live births, the literacy rate is _____100%_______, and the TFR is ___1.78_________ .

If a nation’s net migration rate is a _____negitive_______ number, it means more people are leaving the country than are arriving.
STEP THREE: In a short, well-written essay, answer ONE of the following questions:
1) Some people feel very strongly in their pro-globalization opinions, while some anti-globalization advocates have different beliefs. It’s likely that the truth lies somewhere in between. What do you think is the “middle ground” in this argument? Be sure to provide evidence for your opinion.
OR 2) Explain the academic discipline of Human Geography using the five themes. How is this discipline different from the study of physical geography? In your opinion, what is the benefit of studying Human Geography?
The 5 themes of human geography are location, place, human environment interaction, movement, and region. These things are about people of the earth which is why it is called human geography. The study of physical geography is different because it is the study of land features such as climates landforms soils, vegetation. The benefit of studying human geography is that we are learning about people not only in united states but all over the world and their location, place, human environment interaction, movement, and region.
OR 3) The demographic transition graph describes the changes in birthrates and death rates that a country experiences over time. Describe the changes that the United States has gone through by using the demographic transition diagram.

Homework/classwork
population growth rates change over time especially in North America Japan and Europe. Demographers made the demographic transition model which is something that tracts birth and death rates as time goes on. stage 1-tracts birth and death rates. stage 2-death rates go down and birth rates stay high. stage3-people become aware of the advantages of smaller family. stage4-is a predictor of where we can expect population growths we also learned in class that the richer the country is the more people there are going to be. In Russia they are decreasing in population and they have a national holiday to encourage parents to have kids.

TFR total fertility rate if it is in the shape of the pyramid then the population will go up and it is developing because young people will have kids but if it is not in a pyramid then the population will go down because old people can not have babies. If population is 2.1 then it will go up but if 2.0 it will go down. 3 things that tell if population is going up or down 1. how many people die 2. births 3. immigrants. Life expectancy-how long you are expected to live.

• Population pyramids there are male on left female on right old on top young on bottom
• Percentage of population under 15 is 30% in Europe it is only 17% it is 42% in Africa
• life expectancy- is number of years someone is expected to live
1. B has a higher life expectancy because there are older people in it
2. A has a larger young population because there is a bigger bar at the bottom
3. A will be bigger because the young people will get older
