The diversity of location and place that is cause by earth surface distribution which are widely spread and not the same between one place to another. There are three concepts that related onto it, to help you understand it, we need to know about these three, which are pattern, location diversity, and regionalization.
1. Pattern
Natural phenomena are not spread evenly on the surface of the earth form a variety of patterns are depicted on maps in various scales. For example: the world’s climate patterns, the pattern of spread of the mountain-fire, river drainage patterns, patterns of human occupation (farming, farming, trade, industry), settlement patterns, traffic patterns, etc. Read the rest of this entry »
Location especially geographic location, is one of key indicator to determine the phenomenon of the geosphere. The impact or effect on environment and ecosystem later will be discuss more further in here.
Before we go more further lets have a look at the concept of location, which is divided into:
1. Absolute location, location by latitude and longitude location is fixed.
2. Relative Location, location-dependent effect of the surrounding area and its nature changed.

As we discuss in previous articles, the accumulated trash will affect climate change due to Earth’s rising temperatures, better known by the term global warming. As we all know that global warming is caused by an increase in greenhouse gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and dinitrooxid (N2O). From this pile of garbage would be produced had tons and tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Methane (CH4) can be converted into an energy source that could eventually benefit humans. As for the gas carbon dioxide (CO2), up to now there is no significant utilization.
But the process of change of methane (CH4) into energy still faces obstacles including the lack of prospects in terms of economy, which eventually makes its development is still in place and sometime road going forward. As a result of methane (CH4) produced from waste piles can only be left alone without being able to float to the air.

Instead of emissions from human activities in the fields of energy, forestry, agriculture and animal husbandry, human waste or trash is also a major contributor to global climate change.
Humans in any activity always produces waste that contributes greatly to greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) emissions. Scientific facts show that the waste is one contributor to greenhouse gases in the form of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2).

Ocean have been dominating earth, almost 70% of earth covered by water. This large amount of waters are believed comes from eruption of volcano around four billion years ago.
The geology of the sea floor was largely unknown until the last half of the twentieth century, when the rapid advance of new technologies allowed geologists to study the sea floor in great detail.
