Geography can help us better understand the world around us and the connection between humans and the environment. It can also help us to better understand the impacts of climate change, population growth, and resource utilization. As a subject, Geography can be rather interesting as well. Did you know that Sudan has nearly twice the number of ancient pyramids that Egypt has? Also, did you know that with 31,752 lakes, Canada has more lakes than anywhere else in the world?
