During semester we will see that many contemporary issues are the product of a complex interaction between social and natural processes. We will also see that these processes may occur over vastly different spatial and temporal scales. It follows that many contemporary issues may appear incomprehensible or insoluble when these interactions across space and scale are not understood, or ignored. In this essay we would like you to choose a contemporary environmental issue from the list below and analyse it from a geographical perspective. Specifically, we want you to demonstrate awareness that many contemporary environmental issues are the product of both social and natural phenomena. You should explain the ‘natural’ processes that influence social action, and how those social actions interact with natural processes to create positive or negative social or environmental outcomes. Evidence of a capacity to think across the boundaries between the natural and social sciences in Geography will be rewarded. We want you to demonstrate what ‘thinking geographically’ means in both concept and practice. Choose one of the following topics: • The ‘Millennium Drought’ in Australia • Dryland soil salinisation in New South Wales • Acid Sulfate soils in South Australia • Urbanism and environmental sustainability • 2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami • Climate change and small island states Please download the attached file.
