Geography is just physics slowed down, with a couple of trees stuck in it. - Terry Pratchett



Notice Board



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...

Carbon inequality between countries accounted for two-thirds of all carbon inequality in 1990, but now two-thirds of carbon inequality occurs within nations. 

Can anyone explain what they mean by this?

There used to be a bigger difference between the first and third world than there is now. Now the field has leveled out a bit more and wealth inequality within countries are more influential. Tldr kill billionaires, workers of the world unite. Borders matter less than wealth hoarders.

Thanks for the clarification, the wording had me mixed up.
