One thing to remember is that logarithms are used to solve exponentials. There are plenty of "real world" problems that are exponentials. Some examples are compounding interest annually (or some sort of time frame), population growth, carbon dating, and radioactive decay. This should give you a start on why its important to learn about logarithms.
