The most interesting thing that I learned about the influence of climate, physical features, and natural resources on settlement was that people always seem to settle in the same type of place. A place with a continental or moderate climate, plenty of natural resources, and little or no transportation boundaries. Also, my favorite part of my sketchnote is the drawings of the different climates(Arid, Continental, Tropical, Ice Cap). I feel like they were drawn well and look like what they are supposed to be.

Sketchnote and Sentences for Globalization and Trade.
One of the most interesting things that I learned about Globalization is that it can cause workers in developed countries to lose their jobs. I thought that globalization would cause there to be a growth in jobs, but apparently it can cause a decrease in developed countries because workers who are based in countries where wages are smaller are brought in and the higher paid workers of the developed country are fired. One of the most interesting things I learned about trade was that while it has benefits, such as getting items you don’t have but need, you may have to sacrifice something very valuable that belongs to your country to obtain this beneficial item(s).

Standard of Living Infographic
A country’s standard of living does not represent how everyone in that country lives. For example, the United States has a very high standard of living and that shows a typical standard of living for a middle class person, but a homeless person would have less and a professional sports player would have more.
One of the most interesting things I have learned about standard of living is how it is a fairly accurate way of saying how well off people in that country are, but it still is only accurate to a degree. For example, it will show an average standard of living for the people in that country, say, middle class but there will be richer and poorer people than that standard. While it means that you can fairly accurately say a country’s standard of living ,it still is only so good and can’t be trusted to give you an exact answer. I think that it is interesting that the standard of living data is not precise and is something to be corrected.
I think that a country with a high standard of living has a large obligation to help countries with a low standard of living because they can help that country’s standard of living improve and make their lives easier. If you are able to help someone who needs your help, then you should, because you can make their lives easier and happier. If you can make someone’s day or life brighter, always make it that way.

Economy in my Life
I see economy every day because after I go home from school and do my homework, for consumption, I go outside and use the airsoft guns that I bought. I also use Google and in order to get onto Classroom, which is a service. I go to places like Walmart where I can buy airsoft equipment. The airsoft equipment that I own would have been distributed by the manufacturer to the store so that I could buy it. The equipment would have had to have been produced by the manufacturer before being distributed. Thankfully we have places like Walmart to provide us with goods like food and equipment. I also like to go to restaurants like the 99 in which the food made for us is a service.

Why people choose to be bothered
Why should you choose to be bothered? You should choose to be bothered so that you can help other people. You should choose to be bothered so that other people will follow your example. If you choose not to be bothered then things wouldn’t happen. There wouldn’t be cars. There wouldn’t be hospitals. If people weren’t bothered then there would be no one to take care of sick people. There would be no one to help elderly people or create a rocket to go to the moon. People need to be bothered so that you can accomplish things. So if you choose to be bothered then anything, anything can happen.
