1. How does the cimate of rigion affect thelife style of the people
Answers
Answer:
The more civilised that humans become, the less they notice their climate, as they live in urban areas, with heating, air conditioning, insulation and so on. But people who live in rural areas, or less civilised areas will notice their climate more.
Therefore the climate of a region will affect the lifestyles of rural people more, and of urban people less. However, as climate is responsible for health, wealth and food, even urban areas need to have a good surrounding climate to provide the needs of the people who live there.
Food. This is the main factor which is governed by climate. What will grow, and what must be imported? For poorer countries, who cannot rely so much on imports, the climate is more important.
Health. Extremes of heat, or cold, can impact people’s health to a large extent. This is mitigated by living in an urban area, where homes are heated, or air conditioned. However even in urban areas, too many grey rainy days can cause mental ill health. Too much sun, can also be a cause of ill health in urban areas, due to larger volumes of traffic pollution, which is trapped by heat, and causes breathing difficulties.
Wealth. The wealth of a country can also be impacted by climate. If a country has a very inhospitable climate, such as ice and snow, or desert, then it will not be easy for agriculture or other profitable industry to be carried out, so the country will not be able to sustain a very large population, or to give a good lifestyle to those it does sustain.
