Environmental geography is a big part of north America. I mean just look at north America we have every type of land formation except the rain forest and each type of land form we have does a special job. The plains for example are great for habitats for animals to live in and the coast lines are great for regulating the temperature. The desert is great for testing nukes. The countryside is great for growing crops like corn and wheat. In the end all the different types of environments north America has were all by luck. geographic luck plays a huge role in north America I mean we could have been like Africa all desert with little water or we could be like Antarctica completely covered by ice. So we are very lucky that we are blessed with all these types of landforms. especially because we can use them to the best of their extent or to the best of our abilities. So in the end all the types of envirorment in north America are all given to us by geographic luck
