Some examples of globalization is food, music, visiting places, languages and more. Some examples are if you speak another language and can read and write in that language. If you had eaten other foods from different country's or cultures. Some people have family like cousins, grandparents, aunt and uncles in different country's. So when you visit them you are being interactive with the rest of the world. All in all these are some examples of how the world in interconnected.

# data[].attributes.body
In a developing country there will be limited to very little access to water and education. Also they wont make a lot of money and very little to no medical care, also many people wont be able to read or write. In a developed country they will have access to water supplies easily and they will all be able to read and write. They have made alot of money and have very good medical care. All in all there is a big diffrence between the two.

( 9/10 ) I can identify different economic systems.

# data[].attributes.body
The four economic systems are traditional, mixed, free, command. Tradition means that it was done before and it stays like that. Free means their is no government involvement. Mixed means that there little to medium involvement of the government. Also command is all ruled by the government with no people. The U.S is in the mixed economy. All in all, all of the countries fall into one of the four types.

( 9/9) I can explain and give examples of why population changes.

# data[].attributes.body
Population changes because of immigrants and immigrating. When someone comes to a new country they are  immigrating for a better life, better job, to start a family etc... People can also be FORCED to leave a country do to war which would make a decline in that place's population. All in all if people are leaving a country then they are losing population and if they are moving to a country they are gaining population.

Good examples, and clear understanding.  -- Mr. D

( 9/8 ) I can explain the stages of population and demographic transition model. 

# data[].attributes.body
There are 5 different population stages. There is no country in stage 1, and in stage 5. The most common stages are 2,3, and 4. For stage 2 you will see a high birth rate, and a falling death rate.  For stage three you will see a low birth rate and a low death rate. For stage four you will see falling birth rate and low death rate. All in all there are many different stages for each country.

Some clear details used to show understanding. -- Mr. D

People can use their environment in many ways, whether that is postive or negitive. Some people will not be able to sustian certian things like trees. If we dont become more aware that tres provide oxygen and we arnt sustaining oxygen wont become avalible.  People also have to learn to adapt and depend on land. Also people will live and inhabt areas where the climate is suitable for people whether thats too hot, too cold, too dry, too high, too wet. All in all people impact the land in amny diffrent ways.

 I can define sustainability and explain its relationship to population

# data[].attributes.body
Sustianability means the use of earth limited reasources by humans in ways that do not constrian on the future resources. China has had a major factor in the rising pollution levels. Biodiversitiy is the amount of speceis across the Earth or in a speasifc area. It is important becuase then we know how much reasources we have and what is limited to us.  When there is alot of species it is called species- rich, when  there are little to none species it is called spieceis- poor. All in all sustainability depends on the use of reasources and population of an area.

It is clear you're doing the reading, as you're using evidence from it. And you are making some good connections, and showing some understanding. - Mr. D

# data[].attributes.body
There are many examples of how humans change, need, and depend on the land. For example lets say you live in Sanfransisco which are prone to huge earthquakes. Since you live there you have to adapt to the land by getting earthquake proof homes so you can be safe. Another example is if you live in Texas, since they are known for tornadoes they have to adapt and build or buy a storm celler. All in all there are many ways humans impact the land.

Humans depend on the land more they know. Though some pyhsical landforms will limit what humans can do, though they have to adjust. Since we are now in the 21st century technology has impacted how humans and envirenment interact and alter eachother. Certain places like the Netherlands have created polders, dikes, seawalls, cannals, and pumps to help prevent flooding. Hurricane Katrina got its power from the very warm water, and as it passes over land it can generate into a very powerful storm. All in all humans impact the land by changing it using modern technology, though the envirenment limtis us.

This is true because people will not be able to live and grow as a community when they live in harsh conditions. Whether that is too hot, too cold, too high, too wet, and too dry to have a stable life. You also have to keep in mind food and water supplies have to be easy to access.
