Geography is just physics slowed down, with a couple of trees stuck in it. - Terry Pratchett



Notice Board



Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more...

I'm okay with that if the cows are okay.

I mean I'm okay with breeding and genetically changing, but I would advocate for an institute that checks the animals on health. Just so we don't get animals like Chihuahuas, that often suffer a lot due to their poor health. I could imagine it's not easy for a cow to produce 10 liters of milk a day.

Every time I see something like this I’m like “man this would be great! Things like this can totally save the environment!”

And then I read something that says the major polluters have sextupled their greenhouse emissions this year or some shit and I’m like “oh. None of the big polluters actually intend on using any of this shit. We are so fucked.”

The state of things are depressing and I often wonder if in thirty years when I look back on this moment if I’ll regret not becoming an eco terrorist.

Something tells me trying to solve climate change with eugenics could have some very bad consequences
