Blog Post #32 -Population Concentrations and Sparsely Populated Regions-

     Today is class we took notes on a new powerpoint that we're starting. The point of this AP powerpoint is to get more in depth of what we already know and learned. The first idea is Population Concentrations. Two-thirds of the world's inhabitants are clustered in five regions. These regions would include East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Africa. However, the site and situation of population clusters can vary. Two examples would be low-lying areas with fertile soil and temperate climate, and if it is near an ocean or near a river with easy access to an ocean. The second idea is Sparsely Populated Regions. Humans avoid clustering in certain physical environments. These environments include dry lands, wet lands, cold lands, and high lands. Places considered too harsh for occupancy have diminished over time. After we took some more notes we started talking about Mr. Schick's childhood and how his elementary school got destroyed by a tornado.
