Region is most commonly a geographical term that is used in various ways among the different branches of geography. In general, a region is a medium-scale area of land or water, smaller than the whole areas of interest (which could be, for example, the world, a nation, a river basin, mountain range, and so on), and larger than a specific site. A region may be seen as a collection of smaller units (as in "the New England states") or as one part of a larger whole (as in "the New England region of the United States"). Regions can be defined by physical characteristics, human characteristics, and functional characteristics. As a way of describing spatial areas, the concept of regions is important and widely used among the many branches of geography, each of which can describe areas in regional terms. For example, ecoregion is a term used in environmental geography, cultural region in cultural geography, bioregion in biogeography, and so on. The field of geography that studies regions themselves is called regional geography.

In the fields of physical geography, ecology, biogeography, zoogeography, and environmental geography, regions tend to be based on natural features such as ecosystems or biotopes, biomes, drainage basins, mountain ranges, soil types, and so on.

Q. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the current global model, versus local or regional models, and is there room (or need) to reconcile these different visions for food production?

A. Local - Regional model , People that rely on import - export could make food like in the old times so they would not suffer from hunger , starve famine Global = People with money can eat any kind of food by making poor people starve and work for a miserable pay Global = People can no longer support themselves , you are forced to exchange and so on , cannot live on your own or in small community anymore , therefore forced to live by the world standard

How much is a regional hospital expense?
Q. My father recently had a mild heart attack due to cholestrol and he was rushed to Saint Elizebeth's Regional MEdical Center in Boston,MA. We dont have medical insurance and he stayed there for a check up and not at the emergency. How much would a check up be?
Asked by David Astvatsaturov - Fri Nov 23 10:27:06 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Regional hospitals vary in their costs. If you have the opportunity to go to a state or university hospital, they often have programs to assist those people that don't have medical insurance. Check with your hospital to see if they have a fund to assist people like you, without insurance. Otherwise plan on spending $250 per hour that he was there, unless he was admitted. If he was admitted overnight, it will be less per hour but higher overall. Good Luck
