WHAT IS GEO-ENVIRONMENT?
• "Geo-environmental science, combining Geography and Environmental Science, focus on spatial phenomenon, which providing a unique viewpoint on changes in the human-physical environment that will shape our future. From rapid changes in the tropical rain forest to the changes in local climate dynamics that surely are increasing global temperature. This study addressing fundamental challenges in physical, environmental and social science and employ remote sensing and GIS as powerful tools."

WHAT IS GEOGRAPHY?• Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment, and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time

WHAT IS GEO-LITERACY?• Geo-literacy is the term that National Geographic has adopted to describe the understanding of how our world works that all members of modern society require. Geo-literacy is the ability to reason about Earth systems and interconnections to make far-reaching decisions. Whether we are making decisions about where to live or what precautions to take for natural hazards, we all make decisions that require geo-literacy throughout our lives
