  1. YO! Biogeography also concerns plants!

  2. You also forgot the Mohorovicic Continuity.

    But your nod to physical geography is much appreciated nonetheless!

  3. I'm shit at the physical. Also, I thought about the biogeography thing once I uploaded it. I also thought about including my Mohorovicic/Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich comparison to explain the tectonic shift, but ultimately I kept coming up with more things that I would have to explain, which would have led to an hour-long video.

    Ultimately, physical geography requires more background knowledge to understand than human geography (I think.) There's so much I left out simply because the ammount of required explaination would have required way too many videos.

    My nod to physical geography was the hardest part of this week. I thought about forgoing it, but geography at its very best is holistic, and neglecting that fact is like going to a boxing match only using crosses and not jabs. Human and physical are our yin and yang.

    I'm not great at the stuff, but homage must be paid. Thank God that for every human geographer like me there's a physical geographer like you to bring balance to the Force.

    Much love Colleen.

    See you in a month or so.
