"Tree of life", Tsavo national park, Kenya. This acacia is a symbol of life in the vast expanses of thorny savanna, where wild animals come to take advantage of its leaves or its shade. Tsavo National Park in southeastern Kenya, crossed by the Nairobi-Mombasa road and railway axis, is the country's largest protected area (8,200 square miles, or 21,000 square kilometers) and was declared a national park in 1948.

Iraqi tank graveyard in the desert near Al Jahrah, Kuwait. This graveyard of tanks will bear witness for many years to the damage that war causes both to the environment and to human health. In 1991, during the first Gulf War, a million depleted uranium shells were fired at Iraqi forces, spreading toxic, radioactive dust for miles around. Such dust is known to have lasting effects on the environment and to cause various forms of cancer and other serious illnesses among humans.

APPU: 8. Langkawi Sky Bridge

Rok dokončení: 2008

Tento poněkud křivolaký vyhlídkový most pro pěší je postaven v nadmořské výšce 700 metrů, a kdo jej chce navštívit, musí využít místní lanovou dráhu, která jej k „oblačnému“ mostu, jak jej nazývají domorodci, vyveze. Obloukovitý most nesou lana, zavěšená na ocelovém pilíři uprostřed mostovky. Most je unikátní i tím, že vede odnikud nikam. Na jeho koncích jsou trojúhelníkové plošiny, nabízející vyhlídku na souostroví Langkawi, skládající se z 99 ostrovů.

Taking old World War II photos, Russian photographer Sergey Larenkov carefully photoshops them over more recent shots to make the past come alive. Not only do we get to experience places like Berlin, Prague, and Vienna in ways we could have never imagined, more importantly, we are able to appreciate our shared history in a whole new and unbelievably meaningful way.
