thinkaboutmaps London's Piccadilly tube station. Piccadilly Circus is a road junction and public space of London's West End in the City of Westminster. It was built in 1819 to connect Regent Street with Piccadilly. In this context, a circus, from the Latin word meaning "circle", is a round open space at a street junction.

How much air is in your bag of chips? . “Is it really air in your bag of chips? Actually, the answer is no. What many of us have mistaken for atmospheric air in our chips, is actually nitrogen. In fact, oxygen in the in air would cause the chips to go stale and oils to become rancid. This process is known as "slack fill" which is even thought to make chips taste better. Slack fill isn't harmful in any way, since about 78 percent of the air we breathe is composed of nitrogen". 🌀 Source: https://bit.ly/2NtPUph . FOLLOW @thinkaboutmaps for more! .

Estos son los países que más deforestación han sufrido los últimos 25 años, es aterrador ver como la Amazonía está siendo explotada por los cultivadores de productos como la soja, la palma de aceite y pastos para la ganadería, además de las concesiones mineras, ganadería, hidroeléctricas, deforestación ilegal y la pocas medidas preventivas del gobierno brasileño, hace que muchas zonas antes protegidas estén en riesgo total de ser explotadas por multinacionales y empresas privadas. El caso de Indonesia es aterrador que a sustituido casi un 85% de WWF su selva ecuatorial por cultivos de Palma de aceite, derivando en la pronta extinción de especies autóctonas. Es triste ver esta clase de estadísticas pero es la realidad que vive el planeta, los árboles son la única forma que tiene la tierra y nosotros para respirar y evitar el cambio climático. Te invitamos a que etiquetes 👇a muchas personas para que una vez por todas nos quitemos la vendas y empecemos actuar. 📸: @thinkaboutmaps . . . These are the countries that have suffered the most deforestation in the last 25 years, it is terrifying to see how the Amazon is being exploited by growers of products such as soybeans, oil palm and pastures for livestock, in addition to mining concessions, livestock, hydroelectric, illegal deforestation and the few preventive measures of the Brazilian government, makes many previously protected areas at total risk of being exploited by multinationals and private companies. The case of Indonesia is terrifying that it has replaced almost 85% of WWF its equatorial forest with palm oil crops, resulting in the prompt extinction of native species. It is sad to see this kind of statistics but it is the reality that the planet lives, trees are the only way for the earth and us to breathe and avoid climate change. We invite you to label many people so that once and for all we take off the bandages and start acting. 📸: @thinkaboutmaps

Reposted from @thinkaboutmaps Topographic map of Africa. 🌀 "The average elevation of the continent approximates closely to 600 m (2,000 ft) above sea level, roughly near to the mean elevation of both North and South America, but considerably less than that of Asia, 950 m (3,120 ft). In contrast with other continents, it is marked by the comparatively small area of either very high or very low ground, lands under 180 m (590 ft) occupying an unusually small part of the surface; while not only are the highest elevations inferior to those of Asia or South America, but the area of land over 3,000 m (9,800 ft) is also quite insignificant, being represented almost entirely by individual peaks and mountain ranges. . “As a general rule, the higher tablelands lie to the east and south, while a progressive diminution in altitude towards the west and north is observable. Apart from the lowlands and the Atlas mountain range, the continent may be divided into two regions of higher and lower plateaus, the dividing line (somewhat concave to the north-west) running from the middle of the Red Sea to about 6 deg. S. on the west coast”. 🌀 FOLLOW @thinkaboutmaps and @thinkaboutmapsshop for more! 🌀 #maps #map #mapping #geography #earth #city #cities #country #climatechange #travel #touristic #education #topography #geology #inselberg #germany #africa #main #features #plateau #namibia #egypt #southafrica #geomorfology #plain #kilimanjaro #elevation #mountain #atlasrange https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf011OaLAd4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
