The false statement is - A. Geographers avoid looking at the world with different perspectives.

The geographers are scientists that usually have the knowledge of multiple scientific fields, in fact they are required too. Since the average geographer has the knowledge of multiple subjects, he/she is always aware that one thing can be interpreted in multiple different ways, depending on the perspective, thus they very often interpret multiple ways as to how a certain place can be seen. The different perspective usually include physical geography, demographics, biology, history, politics.
