Africa: Atlas of our Changing Environment
There are more than 300 satellite images, 300 ground photographs and 150 maps, along with informative graphs and charts that give a vivid visual portrayal of Africa and its changing environment. Using current and historical satellite images, the Atlas provides scientific evidence of the impact that natural and human activities have had on the continent’s environment over the past several decades.
The observations and measurements of environmental change
illustrated in this Atlas help gauge the extent of 
progress made by African countries
towards reaching the United Nation’s Millennium Development Goals. More
importantly, this book contributes to the knowledge and understanding
that are essential for adaptation and remediation. This UNEP
publication should be of immense value to all those who want to know
more about Africa and who care about the future of this continent.
