The Brazilian Highlands
Dr. Edmar Bernardes DaSilva (Masters in Geography and Doctor of Geography Education)
Earth Science commonly called GEOGRAPHY and also called GEOSCIENCE is a very important discipline in this modern and globalized world. The USA school system K-12 is not doing the job of teaching geography to their students. Even on the college level, little is done to educate students in Geography. In the USA the knowledge of geography is exceptionally poor compared with other countries (eg. Finland). Do you think that this lack of geographical knowledge is a syndrome of big countries? Because it seems to me that USA, Brazil, Russia, China and Canada are countries where geography is not a very important subject matter lately.
Geography is the mother of all sciences, founded by the ancient Greeks.
