Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more...

Every time I see something like this I’m like “man this would be great! Things like this can totally save the environment!”
And then I read something that says the major polluters have sextupled their greenhouse emissions this year or some shit and I’m like “oh. None of the big polluters actually intend on using any of this shit. We are so fucked.”
The state of things are depressing and I often wonder if in thirty years when I look back on this moment if I’ll regret not becoming an eco terrorist.
