Pastoralism in modern world class 9th
Pastoral nomads in North India such as the Gujjar Bakarwals and Gaddi shepherds moved their herds seasonally between lowland and highland pastures. Similar patterns of seasonal movement occurred among pastoralists in East India, on the plateaus and plains, and in desert regions. During colonial rule, pastoralists' movements were regulated and many lost access to grazing lands, negatively impacting their livelihoods. In response, some adopted more sedentary lifestyles while others combined pastoralism with other work. Overall, the document discusses the seasonal migration patterns of various Indian pastoralist groups and how their nomadic way of life was disrupted by colonial policies.
Forest society and colonialism 2
The document summarizes how the rise of commercial forestry in India during British colonial rule affected local communities. The British established strict forest rules and reserved forests for commercial use, limiting people's access to forests for activities like cultivation, grazing, collecting forest products, and hunting. As a result, many faced harassment from forest guards and had to resort to illegally stealing wood or finding new forms of employment other than their traditional livelihoods. The forest laws severely disrupted people's way of life.
Trade in wildlife 2.6.2016
The document discusses various types of wildlife trade and its impacts. It provides details on the illegal trade of mammal skins and body parts, live mammals for pets and research, birds for pets and feathers, reptile skins, shells, aquarium fish, whale sharks, and medicinal plants. The trade endangers many iconic and lesser-known species. Increased awareness and stronger laws are needed to curb demand and combat wildlife trafficking to protect biodiversity.

Whales powerpoint
Whales evolved from land mammals over 50 million years ago. They have adaptations like blubber for insulation and buoyancy, and efficient oxygen exchange to stay submerged for long periods. Whales are divided into two groups - toothed whales that hunt prey and baleen whales that filter feed krill. Despite threats from whaling, conservation efforts have helped some whale populations recover.
Nature and Importance of Agriculture
Agriculture began around 10,000 years ago when nomadic hunter-gatherers settled and began cultivating plants and domesticating animals. This led to the development of civilizations with division of labor. Important early centers of agriculture emerged independently in several regions including China, India, the Near East, and Mesoamerica where crops like millet, rice, wheat, maize were domesticated. Over time agricultural practices advanced, but population growth created food supply challenges addressed by the Green Revolution through high-yielding varieties and modern inputs. Today major international research organizations continue working to develop new technologies and improve global food security.
Fisheries
This document discusses humans' relationship with fisheries and the challenges of overfishing. It notes that millions depend on fisheries for food, jobs, products, and recreation. However, over 30% of global animal protein comes from the sea, and fishing practices have caused many grounds to decline or become exhausted. Sustainable management of fisheries is needed to prevent population collapse and ensure continued resources, through measures like limiting catch, using selective fishing methods, and creating marine protected areas.
The first farmers
Modern humans originated in Africa and migrated to Europe and Asia around 135,000 years ago, eventually replacing Neanderthals in Europe. The development of agriculture began around 12,000 years ago in the Middle East, as people began cultivating plants and domesticating animals. This Neolithic Revolution then spread to other parts of Eurasia and independently developed in at least three areas of the Americas. While agriculture provided benefits like increased population and new technologies, it also resulted in greater social inequality and environmental degradation compared to foraging societies.
Getting food
This document discusses different methods of obtaining food, including food collection, production, and environmental constraints. It describes two main groups that traditionally relied on food collection: Australian Aborigines and Inuit peoples in the Arctic. Aboriginal groups lived in the harsh desert environment and depended on hunting, while Inuit used tools like harpoons and spears to hunt sea mammals and fish. The document also examines food production methods like horticulture, intensive agriculture, and pastoralism, noting key differences in land and resource use and community structures between these systems. Overall, the document provides an overview of how environment shapes the technologies and strategies used by various human societies to find and produce food throughout history.

Models 2
This document provides an overview of various location theories and models of urban structure. It discusses Weber's location theory which considers transportation, labor, and agglomeration costs. Weber's location triangle is described as a way to find the optimal location that minimizes these costs. Hotelling's model of linear markets and Losch's zone of profitability model are also mentioned. The document then covers central place theory and Christaller's hexagonal hierarchy of central places. Classic urban models like the concentric zone, sector, and multiple nuclei models are summarized. Characteristics of cities in different world regions like Europe, Eastern Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia are outlined.
Models 1
Cultural diffusion is the spread of ideas between cultures through movement of people, goods, or ideas. There are two main types: expansion diffusion which strengthens in the origin, and relocation diffusion which physically moves an idea. Population growth is influenced by birth and death rates and stages of demographic transition. Rostow's model outlines five stages of economic growth through industrialization. Von Thünen analyzed how distance from markets influences land use patterns. Core-periphery and dependency theories address global economic disparities.
Urban 5
The document discusses models of urban development in pre-industrial Europe. It describes how cities grew due to increased trade following the Muslim invasions and Crusades. By the 15th century, some major European cities like London and Paris had populations of 80,000-120,000 people. However, by the 17th century most European cities had become overcrowded, unsanitary, and plagued by disease and crime. The document also outlines Gideon Sjoberg's stages of urban development and describes characteristics of pre-industrial primate cities.
Urban 4
This document discusses urbanization and the factors that influence the location and growth of cities. It examines site (the physical attributes of a location) and situation (the relative location compared to other places). Key points include how urbanization has increased globally with 50% of the world now living in urban areas, and how a city's situation can impact its growth - for example Shenzhen growing due to its proximity to Hong Kong. Site and situation can both help and hinder a city - while prime locations prosper, others may decline if bypassed or lose advantages.
Urban part 3
Pre-industrial European cities grew due to increased trade between Europe and Asia/Middle East following the Muslim invasions and Crusades. Gideon Sjoberg identified stages of urban development including folk-preliterate, feudal, and pre-industrial societies producing cities. He also studied primate cities, which were dominated by religious and government buildings with wealth concentrated in the center and poor on the edges. John Borchert identified a 4-stage model of American metropolitan evolution from the sail-wagon epoch to the auto-air-amenity epoch, where new transportation technologies drove urban growth and change.
Urban 2
The earliest cities of the Indus River Valley, Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, were intricately planned with houses of equal size and no palaces or monuments. Greek cities like Knossos and Athens emerged as highly urbanized areas, with Athens becoming the largest city in the world. Roman cities featured excellent transportation systems and engineering works but also had contrasting wealth and poverty between villas and overcrowded tenements. Chinese cities like Xian were purposefully planned around a central structure with inner walls.
Urban 1
Urban areas have grown dramatically over the 20th century, with hundreds of cities now home to over 1 million people. By 2025, there will be 650 cities of at least 1 million residents. While Western Europe, North America, and parts of Asia are mostly urbanized, other regions like India and China remain primarily rural. Ancient cities first developed around 7,000-5,000 years ago in regions where agriculture led to surplus food and stratified societies with political and religious centers. Five early hearths of urbanization included Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Indus Valley, China, and Mesoamerica, where cities formed around irrigation, trade routes, and theocratic rulers.
Tcl 10e crs_ch11
This document contains a series of multiple choice questions and explanations about topics relating to industrial location and patterns of manufacturing from a classroom response system for a human geography textbook. The questions cover topics such as key industrial regions, factors considered in industrial site selection, the historical development of industry in different countries and regions, different types of manufacturing industries, transportation methods for shipping goods, and trends in the location of industry over time such as outsourcing.
Industry vocab
Industrial agglomeration occurs when secondary and service industries cluster together in cities and regions to share infrastructure and access to markets. Location theory examines why economic activities locate where they do, with firms and individuals choosing locations that maximize their interests. Alfred Weber developed the least-cost theory of industrial location, which posits that industries locate where transportation costs of raw materials and finished goods are minimized.
Chapter 11 powerpoint review
The document is about the geographic distribution of industry during and after the Industrial Revolution. It states that prior to the Industrial Revolution, cottage industries were most common, but during the Industrial Revolution industry became clustered in a few locations. Approximately three-fourths of world industrial production is now clustered in four main regions, and the optimal location for factories is one that minimizes transportation costs of inputs and outputs.
Part 5 industry
South Asia-India is growing rapidly through industrialization, relying on its large coal deposits and labor force. However, infrastructure issues cause 50% of crops to rot, and pollution is a problem from places like the low-paying, low-regulation Bihar Steel Mill. India is also growing its service sector through outsourcing centers. Post-Fordist production has led companies to outsource globally to places with low wages like India's large pool of blue-collar and white-collar workers. Time-space compression through improved transportation and communication allows just-in-time delivery and a global division of labor across companies. China has seen major industrial growth through state-planned then private industry, focusing on areas like the Northeast
Part 3 industry
Location theory considers where businesses locate based on economic, political, cultural, and cost factors. Weber's model states that manufacturing plants locate where total costs are lowest, considering transportation, labor, and agglomeration costs. Hotelling modified this by incorporating the interdependence between similar industries' locations. Losch said plants locate to maximize profits within zones of profitability. Major early industrial regions formed near resources and transportation in Western/Central Europe, Eastern North America, Russia/Ukraine, and Eastern Asia.
Part 4 industry
The document summarizes major manufacturing regions in Eastern Europe, Russia, and East Asia. It describes how the Soviet Union emphasized heavy industry, establishing centers in western Russia, the Urals, and Siberia. It also discusses China's industrialization from the 1950s onward, with help from the Soviets, focusing on steel production and more recently rapid urbanization. Japan rapidly industrialized in the late 19th century due to its large, skilled labor force, though it lacked natural resources and acquired colonies on the Asian mainland.
Part two - industry
This document discusses theories of industrial location and diffusion. It provides the following key points:
1) The industrial revolution first diffused from England to nearby countries like Germany and the Netherlands in the early 1800s, locating near coal fields and ports for transportation.
2) Later in the 1800s, innovations diffused further to places like Paris and London, aided by growing railroad connections which strengthened these cities as manufacturing centers.
3) Location theories like Weber's model of least cost and Losch's model of zone of profitability aim to predict optimal industrial locations based on minimizing costs of transportation, labor, and agglomeration benefits versus deglomeration disadvantages.
Industry part one
The document summarizes the Industrial Revolution, including where it began and how it diffused. It started in England in the late 18th century and spread across Europe and North America through the 19th century. The Industrial Revolution occurred in three phases focused on textiles/iron production/steam power, steel/chemicals/railroads/gasoline engine, and post-WWII high technology. England was well-positioned for the revolution due to geographic, political, cultural, and economic advantages like natural resources, stable government, entrepreneurship, banking/capital, and colonies. Innovations like James Watt's steam engine, Abraham Darby's coking process for iron production, and railroads drove changes in manufacturing, transportation,
Agriculture part 6 the end
Rice production is the most important crop in East, South, and Southeast Asia, with Asian farmers growing 90% of the world's rice, particularly in China and India which account for half of global rice production. Rice is very labor intensive to cultivate, as rice seedlings are transplanted by hand into flooded paddies. Poultry production has also transformed from small-scale to large-scale industrial operations controlled by major companies, with broiler chickens and eggs produced in factory-like conditions, much of which is now located in Southern U.S. states like Arkansas.
Agriculture part 5
The document discusses several topics related to agriculture including:
- Wheat grown with pivot irrigation in Jordan
- The US and China are the top producers of corn, much of which is used for animal feed
- Large farming equipment costs $100,000-$250,000 to purchase while fuel, fertilizer, and pesticide costs make farming a high investment with low returns
- In 1950, one US farmer fed 27 people but today one farmer feeds 135 people due to increased efficiency and scale of American agriculture
Another review of agriculuture
This document contains a series of true/false questions and short answer questions about different types of agriculture around the world. It addresses topics like the percentage of populations involved in farming, the origins of agriculture, dominant crops and practices in various regions, and how agriculture has changed over time and differs between developed and developing areas. Key agricultural practices and crops discussed include subsistence farming, shifting cultivation, pastoral nomadism, mixed crop/livestock farming, and cash crops grown for export markets.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
