My appreciation for our planet has grown with this book. I find it beautiful to see how intelligently physical geographers approach various complex problems. It's a pity that the general public has so little knowledge about the environment and is very stubborn and selfish when it comes to climate and a cleaner living environment, but these criticisms can be much less applied to physical geographers. Of course, there is still a lack of respect for animals, even among most geographers, but they are certainly skilled when it comes to earthly processes, oceans, and biodiversity.
