I always thought geography was about the physical landforms and features themselves, without humanity being considered in it.
Relationships between people and their environments sounds more like sociology to me.
And you would be correct. This definition reeks of wokey-globull-warming leftist b.s.
“I always thought geography was about the physical landforms and features themselves, without humanity being considered in it.”
No, it includes the political boundaries and sites (i.e., borders, countries, cities, etc.). That’s why atlases generally include a physical map (the terrain and waterways, etc.) and a political map (borders, countries, cities, etc.).
I’ve been into maps since I was a kid.
My Dad was a pilot in WWII and in the USAFR. When I was a kid he taught me the rudiments of navigation on a huge map of the world he had in his den. You know, latitude and longitude; degrees, minutes, and seconds; plotting courses, rhumb lines, etc. It came in handy later in life.
Geography has gone woke.
That would be geology.
Yes. Same here. Always loved geography in school, but it was the geographical place that was so interesting.
