I forget where I saw it or who wrote it and all that, but I remember seeing an article stating that there were noticeable differences in how the Earth's landmasses were shifting and changing. Now, how much of that is fact? Well, I don't know but it is super interesting to see that we could be getting another super continent, even though we certainly will be long gone before that happens.

As our technologies increase, we can put some thought of the possibility of this way of warfare returning. A controlled biological warfare could be imminent as terrifying as that would be. Now, in the 1500s it was partly accidental, but biological warfare would ensure that the land wasn't destroyed, only the people. Spooky.

I think this is a tricky situation. Morally, I am sure the courts would like to let them keep the land (depending on who is in charge of this case). But laws can bite anyone in the butt and people get jail time for "crimes" some may feel are undeserved.

That's wild. I never really put any thought to a statistic like this. But seeing how crazy law and court can get, you would think this number would be lower.

Ok it helps knowing what that means, so that's nice. But also, gerrymandering doesn't sound like a fair practice, but as I said in a previous article, I don't know much about politics.

So prejudice caused lines drawn that may not have been completely factual? As the 1930's were a different time, it makes more sense but still, just because of race, places should not be marked as "hazardous" or "desirable," but again, it's the 30's.

Um. What the f***, first of all, 4 years in prison is a slap on the wrist compared to what this person deserves. Second of all, what is going to stop him from attempting to kill the girl or the child? Our country needs to allow any human in danger of injury or death, no matter the gender or age, it's just messed up what this poor girl and her family went through.

Okay I do not know much about politics but I believe making migration laws more flexible will prevent an increase in deaths as Tucson has experienced.

This is precisely what I had in the back of my mind throughout the article and especially during the discussion of The Great Wall, technology being different will nullify and use of a wall and only be a waste of money and labor.

A simple explanation as to why there can not be as many children born. Since selective abortion has been a thing until it was illegalized, there are not as many women to bear children simply due to cultural aspects of China.

Having the choice of giving birth to more than one child should be a human right and we are fortunate to have such freedoms. Although, the reasoning behind people of China not having more kids is the economic instability for people that would like to have more than one child.

Geography is formed by space, place and environment according to this writing. When combined it is geography and they rely on each other. Combining the ideas of each has given me a deeper personal understanding of what makes geography and the ideas that were discussed in class session number two.

I find it interesting how closely geography is connected to history. Julius Caesar connected his knowledge of people to knowledge of geography in the sense that he knew which people resided where, therefore knowing what land is where.

Having a faceless being take this photo makes the journey to space feel feasible to any average human. Also it mentions throughout the reading different media such as photography and comics. This photo is similar to how Stan Lee wanted people to believe anybody could be behind the Spider-Man mask. The photo makes the Blue Marble more impactful for those who view it on Earth.
