Explanation:
In a small village in Tanzania, Africa, Mamba gets up
very early in the morning to fetch water. She has to walk
a long way and returns after a few hours. She then helps
her mother in the house and joins her brothers in taking
care of their goats. All her family owns is a piece of rocky
land around their small hut. Mamba’s father can barely
grow some maize and beans on it after toiling hard. This
is not enough to feed their family for the whole year.
Peter lives in the heart of the sheep rearing region in
New Zealand where his family runs a wool processing
factory. Everyday when he returns from school, Peter
watches his uncle taking care of their sheep. Their sheep
yard is situated on a wide grassy plain with hills in the
far distance. It is managed in a scientific way using the
latest technology. Peter’s family also grows vegetables
through organic farming.
Mamba and Peter stay in two different parts of the
world and lead very different lives. This difference is
because of the differences in the quality of land, soil,
water, natural vegetation, animals and the usage of
technology. The availability of such resources is the
main reason places differ from each other.
Land
Land is among the most important natural resources.
It covers only about thirty per cent of the total area of
the earth’s surface and all parts of this small percentage
are not habitable.
The uneven distribution of population in different
parts of the world is mainly due to varied characteristics
of land and climate. The rugged topography, steep slopes
of the mountains, low-lying areas susceptible to water
Let’s do
Observe the land,
type of soil and
water availability
in the region you
live. Discuss in
your class, how it
has influenced the
lifestyle of people
there.
Do you know?
Ninety per cent
of the world
population
occupies only
thirty per cent of
land area. The
remaining seventy
per cent of the
land is either
sparsely populated
or uninhabited.
