Earthbending is explained by Iroh: The Element Of Substance. An earthbender doesn't have "substance" wherever he or she is. Now, I don't think EVERYONE will agree with this, but I think that earthbenders could have that "substance" wherever they go if they had the right amount of earthbendable blocks in their inventory.
Example: Lets say an earthbender is in an antarctic-like environment and suddenly comes across a waterbender to which the waterbender starts to attack the earthbender. He would be 100% powerless because there would be no earth anywhere. So what if the earthbender had like a stack of dirt with him. He should be able to use that dirt to earthbend. Is it not an earthbendable source? Is it not in your inventory? So if you had dirt anywhere in his inventory and clicked with earthblast, the earthbender will shoot said dirt. Now, I am not saying you need like just 1 dirt to make an entire raise earth but if you had enough dirt to make the raise earth, it would happen. Also, it shouldn't be limited to only dirt. It can be any earthbendable block.
EDIT: There should be a cooldown apparently.
