Part of a must-have series for those interested in human geography! This poster-sized world map is featured in the National Geographic Atlas of the World, Tenth Edition , published to mark the 125th anniversary of National Graphic Cartography.
Human geography examines how human activity affects and is affected by the earth and its natural processes. While we will not be able to measure precisely results of human-caused climate change, what we do know is alarming. Polar ice caps are melting at an alarming rate, and precipitation patterns are shifting - with devastating impacts. These processes and more are explored in this unique map.
The mapping of the planet's rising temperature, the health toll of climate change and the changing sea-levels provide added context to a global phenomenon that has sparked controversy for decades. What do you think is going on?
