5 Themes of Geography

Part A:


Human-Environment Interaction:
Human-Environment Interaction considers the fact how humans adapt and modify the environment; however, this can either have a negative or a positive affect on the environment. The image I have chosen is the Golden Gate bridge to show the theme of Human Interactions. The use of this bridge shows the environment has been modified for our needs. If there were no humans on earth there would be no bridge. Humans built bridges to make their lives easier for travelling and to get to certain places quicker.



Movement:
Movement is a theme which studies the movement and migration of ideas, goods and resources. The image I have chosen is a cargo ship for the theme of Movement. Ships are not always used to move people around from one place to another. Cargo ships are used to ship goods and  resources from one city to another country/city. For example Port of San Diego brings in nearly 3,300,000 metric tons of cargo per a year. Most of the time this port receives cars or food from the Dole Food Company. This cargo ship in my picture can also be transporting cars or bananas to another city for profit, which leaves the ship to be part of the theme Movement.

Place:
A place describes the human and physical characteristics of a location. Physical characteristics include descriptions of mountains and beaches and rivers. Human characteristics  include the human designed cultural features of a place. A temple is an example  of a human charastics. I chose the Serpentine River as a place. It is a physical characteristic which people can use to give directions to small businesses which are around it.
