why Geography is important?

Answer 1

Anything you read about or see on TV or in a movie needs to have a place in space/time. Time is done as either past (how far?), present, or future (how far?). But space, for most of our time, is the surface of this planet. So if you want to understand what's going on in a story, fact or fiction, you need to understand maps and the relationship of one space to another.

I recently bought a beautiful new Atlas by National Geographic. Oh, Lord, do those people do a great job! They put many different maps in for a given location, because there is so very much information that is mappable. And being able to see where one piece of information is, physically, in relation to another, can be a great deal of wisdom added to your perception.

Everything else you learn is intimately related to its geographical position.

Answer 2

It rules the world. Geography is way more important than politics and business put together. It is also more important than English Language, psychology, History, Law, economics and most of the social studies subject.

Answer 3

Geography (from the Greek words Ge (γη) or Gaea (γαια), both meaning "Earth", and graphein (γραφειν) meaning "to describe" or "to write"or "to map") is the study of the Earth's features and of the distribution of life on the earth, including human life and the effects of human activity.[1] So, literally, the translation would be "To describe Earth".There are at least four traditional views on geography among geographers where emphasis is on the spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena (geography as a study of distribution), on area studies (places and regions), on man-land relationships, and earth science (study of the earth, its waters, and the atmosphere.)[2]

Introduction
Traditionally, geography as well as geographers has been viewed as the same as cartography and people who study place names. Although many geographers are trained in topography and cartography, this is not their main preoccupation. Geographers study the spatial and temporal distribution of phenomena, processes and feature as well as the interaction of humans and their environment.[3] As space and place affect a variety of topics such as economics, health, climate, plants and animals, geography is highly interdisciplinary.

Geography as a discipline can be split broadly into two main sub fields: human geography and physical geography. The former focuses largely on the built environment and how space is created, viewed and managed by humans as well as the influence humans have on the space they occupy. The latter examines the natural environment and how the climate, vegetation & life, soil, water and landforms and produced and interact.[5] As a result of the two subfields using different approaches a third field has emerged, which is environmental geography. Environmental geography combines physical and human geography and looks at the interactions between the environment and humans.[3]
