    ah. Seen that before, it’s from the UN Geo-4 report which I commend to you all.

    Lots of other interesting pictures in there… for instance, off the top of my head:
    * speed of uptake of lead-free petrol throughout Africa
    * growth of wheat in polluted air compared to filtered air (quite scary)
    * satellite pictures before showing rainforest after a large group of people shift
    * satellite picture comparisons of cities showing effects of urban sprawl
