Why do people live in #dense cities?

@EnriquePenalosa, former mayor of Bogotá, gives two reasons that sum it up:
1. It’s fun; people like to be around people.
2. Dense cities are more productive and more creative.

I cry - if I’m sad, angry, happy - any extreme of emotion, I cry. Often big, red-faced crying with hiccuping sobs. I used to think this was a weakness, but not any more. I totally agree with this - and I think our biggest strength as a human beings is empathy and compassion.

@jurassicg1rl @timeforgeog Thank you, I will also make sure I show this to our students

[Croydon High Geog @CroydonHighGeog]

Geography is a fantastic, modern and forward thinking degree choice. If you are interested in applied STEM, global communities, sustainable practice, diversity, human rights, politics and being able to influence government policy and action, then geography is a good choice.

this is directly relevant to #Y12. We have studied migration and currently Human Rights. In Year 13 we will investigate debates such as disease dilemmas. This article is directly relevant. Please read-such an important issue. #OCRGeography #ALevelGeog

That was such a lovely poem, and our appalling pronounciation of Nepalese words, was recieved with such kindness. The school we stayed with was full of amazing teachers and fabulous students. It was such a special community. 💕 thank you, we are so excited to visit Nepal again.
