Saying Goodbye To Planet Earth

Have you lot said goodbye to the rainforest yet? Based on the electrical flow levels of deforestation the Amazonian rainforest volition hold upward gone inwards virtually 250 years time. By the twelvemonth 2260 most of the rainforest volition in all probability hold upward lost forever. This horrifying forecast comes from a novel mapping tool called Co$ting Nature in addition to is based on the electrical flow charge per unit of measurement of deforestation inwards the Amazon.

Infoamazonia used the Co$ting Nature information & surroundings service to projection the effects of the electrical flow rates of deforestation inwards the Amazon on the size of the rainforest. The results of the projections tin hold upward viewed on Infoamazonia's interactive Forest Cover Through Time map. The map shows Co$ting Nature's projections for the extent of the forest's encompass upward until it is almost completely destroyed. Just select the engagement buttons higher upward the map to persuasion the projected wood encompass for a specific year.

Infoamazonia's Forest Cover Through Time map is simply the latest visualization of the uncertain futurity humans facial expression upward if nosotros don't acquire to curtail our electrical flow levels of consumption. For example, Climate Central lately released an interactive map which reveals how hot your metropolis volition hold upward inwards the twelvemonth 2100, if carbon emissions operate out on every bit currently predicted.

Climate Central's Shifting Cities allows you lot to pick out from a large publish of major cities simply about the basis to persuasion the results of global warming inwards 2100. Climate Impact Lab's Climate Impact Map also visualizes how global warming volition outcome temperatures simply about the basis over the balance of this century.

The University of Hawaii has released a like interactive map which uses expected temperature increases to predict the publish of deadly days nosotros tin await from extreme rut simply about the basis for each twelvemonth upward to 2100. Heatwaves: Number of deadly rut days provides a timeline command which allows you lot to persuasion the publish of deadly days for whatever twelvemonth from 1950-2100.

Thanks to NOAA's Sea Level Rise Viewer nosotros tin also discover how these increases inwards temperature volition outcome ocean levels. By the halt of this century the National Climate Assessment estimates that ocean levels may ascension past times upward to 6.6 feet. NOAA's interactive map uses the most accurate elevation information available to model how dissimilar extents of ocean degree ascension volition send on coastal areas inwards the USA upward to the twelvemonth 2100.
