AH9 – Outline #1 – Chapter 1

Page 2: AH9 – Outline #1 – Chapter 1. Wherever people live, they have shaped their environment to suit their needs. The Human ability to change the environment,

 Wherever people live, they have shaped their environment to suit

their needs. The Human ability to change the environment, however,

is limited. Often, people must adapt their agriculture, industry,

arts, and daily habits to their surroundings. It is important to see

the connections between people and their environment.

Study of people, their environments and their sources

How the natural environment affects the way we live and how we affect the environment

B.     The 5 Themes of Geography

Page 7: AH9 – Outline #1 – Chapter 1. Wherever people live, they have shaped their environment to suit their needs. The Human ability to change the environment,

 1.      Location = Where did it

happen? To answer this we turn to relative and exact location.
