From our lecture I know geography is Geography is the study of the Earth and its lands, features, inhabitants and phenomena. Contemporary Geography is an all encompassing discipline that seeks to understand the Earth and all of its human and natural complexities – the process of how things have evolved.
My own understanding is that geography is the study
of the earth’s landscapes, peoples, places and environments. It is, quite
simply, about the world in which we live.
Geography is unique in bridging the social sciences (human
geography) with the natural sciences (physical geography). Human geography
concerns the understanding of the dynamics of cultures, societies and
economies, and physical geography concerns the understanding of the dynamics of
physical landscapes and the environment. Geography is, in the broadest sense,
an education for life and for living. Learning through geography – whether
gained through formal learning or experiential through travel, fieldwork and
expeditions – helps us all to be more social and environmentally sensitive,
informed and responsible citizens and employees.
For me I like any kinds of
outdoor activities, climbing, diving. These activities can let me stay away
from cities. In other words, this can let me closer to nature, to fell the
mysteries of nature. But these kinds of activities are dangerous. If I know
some geographical knowledge, so it will be much safer. It is very useful for me
