"EARTH: A Graphic Look at the State of the World" summarizes the conditions of the world's natural ecology and human cultures, their interactions and impact on each other (http://www.theglobaleducationproject.org/earth/index.php)

"EARTH" is an integrated collection of over 100 colourful charts and maps which make obvious the connections between apparently disparate topics — core statistics on forests, soil, fresh water and ocean fisheries are side by side with the numbers on climate change, carbon dioxide emissions, wealth and power, food supply and oil supply, military budgets, population density, health, poverty, access to clean water and life expectancy.

For an accurate understanding of the state of the world, humanitarian and environmental issues cannot be separated and anyone striving to understand these complex challenges can save themselves hundreds of hours of reading and research using this website or wall chart.

This resource has already proven itself a unique and time saving "multi-tool", helping thousands of people to get the facts necessary to "Think Globally".

Rigorously referenced to reliable sources, "EARTH" is published in three formats; a full colour 27" x 36" wall chart, an interactive web site, and a CD (with slide show, commentary, and printouts). http://www.theglobaleducationproject.org/earth/index.php
