A striking collection of satellite images documenting human impact on
the Earth--and how the Earth responds--from the creators of Overview
and the Instagram sensation Daily Overview.
Change is Earth's most important and influential constant. From
geological changes that take place over millennia, to the growth of
civilization, to intense (and increasingly common) weather events
exacerbated by a warming climate, the planet is constantly in flux. With
areas viewed over various periods of time--days, months, and
years--these changes become even more apparent, as does the scale and
scope of human impact on Earth.
Overview Timelapse is a compelling photographic survey of the state of
change on Earth today. With human activity driving this transformation
faster than ever, visible signs can now be seen across the planet.
Through its 250 mesmerizing images such as sprawling cities and the
patterns created by decades of deforestation, this book offers a fresh
perspective of change on Earth from a larger-than-life scale.
