Re: Difference between Geographer and Environmentalist?

The difference between the two is not that much and that is why most of the people confuse between the two and use the terms interchangeably. The basic difference between a Geographer and an Environmentalist is that a

Geography is the one which deals with the study of geographical aspects of a region,

Environmental sciences regards the our environment everything from contamination to conservation, pollution, global warming, environmental engineering etc.

It is concerned mainly with the human interaction with the environment. it is more similar to HUMANISTIC geography .

On the other hand earth sciences concern the planet earth therefore geology, geophysics, and geosciences in general.

It is more like PHYSICAL geography. you learn everything from sedimentary process, the earth internal processes, volcanoes/earthquakes, but also things like paleontology, or climate.

Do not worry, here is the difference between the Geographer and Environmentalist.

Geographer is the person or we can say that social scientist who is engaged in compiling geographic and topographic information of a particular location or region.

The information collected by the Geographers helps in case of Disaster recovery.

Geographers are mainly interested in studying the relationship between human society and natural environment. They mainly conduct research about human activities such as ethnic distribution, economic activities etc. Also construct and interpret maps.

Now on the other hand, Environmentalists are mainly interested in studying different factors affecting our environment such as pollution, conservation of natural resources.

These persons are busy in forming the green policies for the different companies so as to protect our environment. They make people aware how to use natural resources in most efficient manner.
