Human-environment interaction
Geography comprises many fields: physical geography (which is the central topic of this course) and human geography are the two of the many. All the geography involves with the importance of space and time (such as location, place, movement, and region). Physical geography focuses on the non-human (physical) world, while human geography seeks at the interaction between human and the environment. By what I mean about the physical focus in physical geography, it is the field that studies geological, meteorological, and biological phenomena and processes. The field of human geography brings us majorly two questions: What is the impact of environment on human? What is the impact of human on the environment? The landscape and environment (such as climates) does shapes our settlement on planet earth, but the second question will definitely raises up our issue of climate change and global warming as more deforestation is occurring around the globe.
