Today in class we reviewed the video we watched yesterday. we talked alot about the population pyramid and why more developed countries have more people that are alive longer than the undeveloped countries. we also talked about what possible jobs the countries that are more developed will need from our generation since there are so many older people. we talked about why the past generation in our contry had so many more people than our generation did now. we also talked about the different fazes. one is preindustrialization, then industrialization, finally post industrialization.

Today in class we learned that when you measure the population you use the crude biving the rth rate and death rate. the crude birth rate is the number of births per 1000 of the population. the crude death rate is the number of deaths per 1000 of population. we learned that the rate of natural increase produced by subtracting death rate from the birth rate. the rate of natural birth also gives us the annual natural growth rate for a country or region. the net migration rate is the difference between the number of persons entering & leaving a country during a year. excess of persons entering the country is net immigration . excess of persons leaving the country is net emigration.

9/18 people on the land

In Human Geo we learned that over 7 billion people are on earth. That our population is increasing by73 million a year. since people die, that is not just the amount of babies born every year either. the amount of babies born is more is more. 90% of population growth takes place in developing countries of Africa, South and east asia and latin america.

Today in Human Geo we discussed why other countries are learning english. We decided that because english was an international language and so many people in other countries will take jobs for less money than americans they have many reasons to learn english. Also we discussed how if it would really be worth it for companies to keep american workers because they still would cost alot. Then we started to talk about how when minum wage starts go up so will the countries income.

Did you know?

As i watched the video my reaction was surprised at how everything has been evolving so fast. My reaction also was concerned at the future. If india is having so many kids at such a rapid pace and they have already started to take americans jobs how much harder will it be for americans to get jobs. Also will america have to become over populated for the chances of them getting jobs to be higher. Or if they want to be the largest english speaking country will they become over populated and go into poverty. And what is going to be founded next? What will that be able to do will it help turn our generation into what as elbert hubbard said in message to garcia the lazy generation that does nothing. In my life technology plays a huge role. Technology is in everything. I am tuping this blog with technology. most of my notes for school are typed. I communicate with people through my phone. Finding something that technology is not involved in is going to be very hard.

Day 5

Today in human geo we went over more about the message to Garcia. Message to Garcia is about how during the spanish american war president mckinley sent this man rowan to go find garcia. Garcia was the head insurgent. But it only tok Rowan a day to find Garcia and Elbert Hubbard wads so impressed with Garcia because at the time in age it seemed like Rowan's generation was lazy and never actually tried and Rowan showed Hubbard that not everyone in the generation was like that. We also learned that america is supposed to be the best country but we have very few americans that vote and most the americans that vote are the older population that have been through world war 2 and almost lost the chance to vote.

Day 4th

Today in human geo we learned several things. The students learned that they should start using google chrome. We also learned that Mr.Schicks niece's motor in law had als. So he explained to us that als is more than something on a social media. We also in Mr.Schick's class learned how to be able to get to links from our home of this blogger site. That way we can keep track of important things like readings. Also we fixed many peoples blogsthat weren't setup right.
