Abstract

The biological crisis of existence in which the species finds itself is clearly demonstrated in geography. The spread of mankind and machinekind explain the spread of speciecide. Geobiological revolutions are ones in which profound changes in spatial domain occur and are typically misunderstood as mere national, racial, political, or cultural events. These events must be given their proper geobiological interpretation. The geography of the future must create spaces in which mankind is preferred to machinekind. Specifically, geographers must help to construct regions in which children prosper, since the protection of the specie's young is the protections of the species itself. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
