                                                            Human Geo

     Today in Human Geo we visited the CIA website and looked at different countries. We talked mostly about life expectancy. Monaco continued to stay number 1 in life expectancy. The united States went up to number 42 in life expectancy. Chad is still very low at 223 in life expectancy.We also talked about immigration and emigration. Immigration is how many people are coming int the country and emigration is how many people are leaving. The United States went down in immigration from 3.62 to 2.45.  However, Mexico went from -3.11 to -1.64 for emigration. Canada's immigration went from 5.56 to 5.66. That's not a really big difference, but it still went up. I also found some interesting facts about the United states. For example, the United States is ranked 18th for obesity. Also in the United States 82.1% speak English. Today in Human Geo we also talked about crude death rate and crude birth rate. Crude birth rate is the number of births per 1000 of the population. Likewise, crude death rate is the number of deaths per 1000 of the population. The United States is 150 in birth rate and 94 in death rate. Overall, I thought the CIA website was very cool and I enjoyed learning all about our country and other countries today.
