Original Note:
Environmental determinism is a baseless racist theory from around the 1800s, used to justify colonism and slavery, affirming that natural conditions shape the capacity of human development. It has been disproved in the field of Geography since the 1900s. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/social-sciences/environmental-determinism#:~:text=Environmental%20determinism%20is%20the%20belief%20that%20physical,of%20nature%20and%20society%20on%20the%20environment. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1467-8306.1985.tb00069.x
