Death and Birth Rates Stat in Breathing Earth World Map

2010-02-09_032004  

BreathingEarth, shows an animated presentation of the estimated levels of CO2 emissions, death and birth rates of each country in the world based on CIA World Factbook. As you watch the world map sizzles and changes color, representing the accumulated amounts of CO2 as well as calculating the estimated number of deaths caused as a result. You can hold your mouse cursor over each country to get specific rates. While the numbers shown shouldn't be taken as being the most reliable, the way the information is presented is certainly interesting.
