THE TANGIBLE EARTH
TANGIBLE EARTH is an interactive digital globe designed by the Earth Literacy Program.
It dynamically represents various aspect of the earth, such as real-time weather, earthquake and tsunami, climate variations and global warming progression, biodiversity, trans-national circulation of air pollutants, etc.
It is an extraordinary means for researchers and policy makers to access a better and deeper understanding of the present condition of the earth. This is the basis for taking a real proactive approach to protecting the planet.
