Sorry to do this publicly, but I’m not sure how to escalate this. We have a student who has set up an account with the sole purpose of mocking (bullying) other students and staff. I’ve reported it but apparently it doesn’t breach your community guidelines! Wow!

Beautiful picture of the erupting fissure. It looks like the 3,5 km fissure is on a northern sloping area thus the lava is flowing towards the north, which is good news for the people of Grindavík. #icelandvolcano 📷Almannavarnir

The wettest place in the world, Mawsynram, India just recorded a mind boggling 39.51 inches (1003.6 mm) of rain in the last 24 hours.
These are what the waterfalls in the area look like.

Animated map shows whether a country does more trade with the US or with China. You can see the shifting "alliances" of the US-China Trade War between 1980 and 2018. Have a close look at how African nations are tilting towards China. Source: buff.ly/3rNqO9Q

The Richter Scale was invented in 1935 as a mathematical device to compare the size of earthquakes. Using a seismometer to detect vibrations caused by an #earthquake, the magnitude can be measured using the Richter scale, which is numbered 1-10... #geographyteacher #geography

Why?
The answer is a combination of #platetectonics and Earth's oceans. 1/9

Every single country on Planet Earth has its own unique climate signature.
You are looking at virtually all of them in about 20 seconds.
The message is the same, every country is getting warmer. Some much faster than others.
