Today in class we read the rest of the essays and took notes on them. We also looked at Mr. Schick's North America power-point.
Here are my notes:
North America Power-Point
• United States and Canada
• Diverse in everything.
• 335 million people.
• Rich in natural resources.
• Variety in climates.
• Ultra-globalized.
• Last remaining global superpower (U.S.) (Nuclear Power, weapons)
Environmental Geography
• North Americans have transformed the land.
-Wheat, cattle, horses are not native but introduced.
• U.S. is the third largest consumer of water
-China is #1 and India is #2 (more people)
-U.S. city dwellers consume 175 gallons a day! (showers, car washing, washing machines, etc.)
