Notes:
- Geographers think about scale at many levels, from local to global
- At the global scale, encompassing the entire world, geographers tend to see broad patterns
- People all doing their part to grow or buy locally grown/ made products so that less products are being shipped from overseas causing less fossil fuels to be burned releasing green house gases into the environment/ atmosphere
- If large groups of people started to buy locally it would start to make a change in the economy
- The same thing would happen if large groups of people shifted to using solar energy
- Oil companies would suffer dramatically if this shift occurred so they have made an extreme effort to make it seem as though it is so expensive and it would take a long time to actually profit off it installing them
- We are the number one importing of oil in the world even though we are the third largest producer of oil in the world
