    Study Notes

    1. Landforms are natural features on Earth, with mountains, valleys, plateaus, plains, and hills being examples.
    2. Soil conservation, weathering, erosion, deposition, terracing, contour farming, crop rotation, and no-till farming are land-related concepts.
    3. Biodiversity loss is the decrease of diversity within species or species extinction, with habitat loss, invasive species, pollution, population growth, and overharvesting being major threats.
    4. Biodiversity loss has negative effects on the economy, food security, and ecological balance.
    5. Climate change is a gradual change in weather conditions caused by natural and human-made factors.
    6. Energy is the ability of an object or organism to do work and can be converted from one form to another.
    7. There are renewable and non-renewable energy resources, with wind, water, solar, biomass, and geothermal being renewable.
    8. Natural resources are consumed to meet basic needs, and conservation is the responsible and wise use of these resources.
    9. Conservationists promote responsible use of natural resources, while preservationists believe in not using them at all.
    10. Energy conservation is important because of the limited availability of fuels on Earth and the increasing demand for energy.
