Rural Environments Have Contrasting Physical, Social And Economic Characteristics And Are Experiencing Significant Changes
Overzicht
Two villages, both rural, both losing young people. In Cornwall the houses they leave behind are bought as holiday lets and the population rises. In rural Bihar the houses stay in the family and the young men send money home from Delhi. Same headline, opposite geography.
This topic gives you the vocabulary to describe any rural area precisely, then takes you through the forces reshaping the countryside in a named developed country and in a named developing or emerging country. Edexcel awards marks for specific, accurate, named detail, so the two case studies here are the part worth learning properly.
Doelstellingen
- Characteristics of a rural environment: landscape, climate, settlement, population, land use, employment, accessibility, management (development or conservation)
- Factors leading to rural changes in a named developed country: rural isolation, decline in farm employment, tourist pressures, suburbanisation, counter-urbanisation, and the negative multiplier effect
- Factors leading to rural changes in a named developing country or emerging country: population growth, changing farm economy and landholdings, natural hazards, and rural-urban migration
