Whilst browsing the internet, I came across two very nice websites that I really liked and I hope you like them too:
The first is the Breathing Earth Website : this is a real time simulation of the world's CO2 emissions and birth and death rates. Whilst it is only a simulation, it did make me think.
1 ha of trees removes approximately 3.5 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere per annum and you can measure your own Carbon Count Number here. CO2 is one of the main contributers to Global Warming and reducing its emmission will help to stem the damage caused by global warming.
The other nice and totally unrelated website which I came across was Wonderclub listing the "Wonders of the World" , with the wonders of the world listed under:
The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
The Seven Wonders of the Medeival Mind
The Seven Natural Wonders of the World
The Seven Underwater Wonders of the World
The Seven Wonders of the Modern World
The Seven Forgotton Natural Wonders of the World
The Seven Forgotten Modern Wonders of the World
The Seven Forgotten Medeival Wonders of the Mind
The Forgotten Wonders of the World
This site brought home to me the number of places I need to travel to and see and how did we forget about all those other wonders?
