Using modeller neural networks, scenario 2025 simulated. graphic cartographic material teachers processes both globally regionally. Processes have already taken place discussed related environmental impacts. It also possible predict what might happen future if current trends continue. aim involve students order increase awareness encourage them participate search solutions territorial problems.
