LEARNING GOAL 2: ANALYZE HOW CLIMATE, NATURAL RESOURCES, PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY AND HUMAN GEOGRAPHIC FACTORS AFFECT THE LOCATION OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. CRITERIA FOR SUCCESS: EXAMINE HOW CLIMATE, NATURAL RESOURCES & PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY AFFECT THE LOCATION OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. EXAMINE HOW HUMAN GEOGRAPHIC FACTORS AFFECT THE LOCATION OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. Location of Economic Activities

1. NATURAL RESOURCES: SUBSISTENCE- OCCURS NEAR RURAL COMMUNITIES COMMERCIAL AGRICULTURE- FERTILE AREAS WITH TRANSPORTATION 2. HUMAN LABOR: MANUFACTURING AND SERVICE CITIES NEED ACCESS TO RESOURCES TRANSPORTATION AND SKILLED LABOR WORKFORCE 3.INFRASTRUCTURE 4. FAVORABLE CLIMATE The 4 factors that determine where economic activities are located

Climate Natural Resources Changes in climate, specifically extreme weather phenomenon like hurricanes, can disrupt economic activities. This is especially true in areas dependent on cash crops. If crop continues to fail, what would you do as a country? (Ex. Oman) Ex.: Prolong droughts, desertification and deforestation have an impact on the location of economic activities. 1. What does the discovery of natural resources do for economic activities?  Answer in ISN ?? 2. Due to the discovery of natural resources, what would builds up around that area?  Answer in ISN ?? E?: How do changes in climate, resources & infrastructure affect location of eco activities?

Why is infrastructure so imperative (necessary) for economic development?  Answer in your ISN  Before you answer the question below:  73E152EFA49Dwww.youtube.com/watch?v=ggtH05LFF3k&list=PLAB03 73E152EFA49D

Read the article using this link and answer the questions below in your notebookthis link 1. What climate pattern is causing the drier than normal weather in Texas? 2. How are drier conditions impacting rice farmers in Texas in terms of production of rice, insurance claims and employees? (Address all 3) 3. Is it just rice farmers who are feeling the drought? If no, who else is suffering and in what ways? 4. Answer: How does changing climate and resources affect the location of economic activities?
