The third part of today.
After our discussion of consumer landscapes, we considered a number of images showing a shopping mall in Mumbai, India.
The first point that stuck you was that landscape of the shopping mall in India, reflected the same consumer wants in Nottingham or Derby. A couple of stereotypes were challenged by this, the idea that India is all poor…
We could have took images from several major world cities and have found the same theme occurring…
But why has this happened?
The second part of today.
So what is a consumer landscape?
This term refers to how the urban landscape has adapted to the wants and aspirations of the consumer.
Geographers talk about consumer landscapes being spaces of consumption.
The course refers us to four different types of consumer landscapes
Nice set of lesson today, really enjoyed it…
We started with a revision of industrial sectors, which you will need knowledge of for your lesson on Monday and when we look at product webs.

After a lesson that seemed to take hours to start
, it must have been my migraine, we considered the ethical factors that might be considered when thinking about purchasing organic or inorganic products, using apples as an example.
Remember you need to write up your answer to the essay question on the support sheet, this is good practice and will help you in your next piece of coursework.
I have placed a copy of the sheet under work set. Remember the deadline for submission is Monday 2nd of July 2007. Remember this is just a guide and I’m hoping for some independant flare as well!
Tomorrow we go on to look at consumer landscapes and hopefully begin to look at an example of a product web.
Just another bit of praise about the quality of your coursework and your meeting of deadlines. Well done to all.
You see, I can be nice sometimes.
Just time for a brief celebration, if you were number 30,000, you can just be proud….
And it rained and rained and rained… I wanted some new pictures of the lake, but I was worried about being washed away, as it now looks like a small sea. I’ll have to get some pictures tomorrow.
Some more pictures here from the B.B.C. , summer anyone?
If you have any good pictures let me know.
