The Earth Story

I have been following this on Facebook for some time. It's an excellent little blog that brings some interesting aspects and facts of the Earth right into your lap. I'd like to draw your attention to the post reviewing the data on the most recent global carbon emissions estimates. These were published in the journal Earth Systems Science Data Discussions and subsequently made headlines in the media this week. This of course goes on in a climate-packed week where discussions carry on in Doha on the future of emissions targets and the most accurate data on polar melt is released. It paints a rather dark and disturbing picture of what is to come but still makes for an interesting read, inspiring you to think more about our changing world and comes with this pretty good picture! =)

  2. They are particularly beautiful. I loved the article on the Reed Flute Cave in China. It's now somewhere I hope to visit in the future!
