This is a more personal question and answers may vary from person to person but here are some general reasons for why learning this subject would be of value to us now and in the future.
1.travelling- learning about locations of the world makes travelling a lot easier. It may help you in knowing exactly which flight and layover you may need to book etc.
2.physical features- physical features such as beaches,mountains,desert etc allow us to understand where we may want to travel to but also may influence our choices on where to live permanently.
3.politics-learning about the geography of ones specific country will help us understand better our relations with our neighbours.
How the location of us and other countries affect each other in terms of warfare or support
4.economy/trade-once again we can determine our country’s economic well-being by seeing trade routes with other nations
5.culture-we can learn more about our country and other country’s culture just through learning about locations that allows us to have a better relationship within our country and the rest of the world.
6.agriculture-we can properly learn about certain aspects of farming through geography, we can determine water availability,soil quality,type of slopes in land etc we can also find out if a place is fit for other forms of agriculture such as dairy,meat and fishing.
7. Tourism- if we can recognise the unique physical features of our nation, it can be used as a destination for tourism which could significantly improve the country’s nation.
8. Transport- learning the various features of a region allows us to maximise its potential for transport of deem it unfit to support transport to prevent accidents. For eg a water body may be great for transport between cities while a mountain region with unpredictable weather, large rocks etc may be dangerous for travel.
