Our World Without People map is an interactive application that you get for free when you buy Quakeshakes. This app gives you a dramatic visual glimpse of planet earth untouched by human hands, the way nature intended it.
World Without People is actually two maps. One shows you the earth as it is now. The other shows you the planet without human habitation so you can contrast the two. Like the Amazon Rainforest above. Or the Indus-Gangus plains in India, one of the most populous regions on earth.
World Without People is a great educational tool, offering a unique perspective on the impact human beings have on earth. Additional interactive segments are designed to broaden your understanding of the human footprint.
