Different tonalities are given to separate the main kinds of night light
visible on the earth surface from satellites:
-
Yellow dots represent urban incandescent
lights. Now we see who's "affluent".
-
Red dots represent gas explosions connected
with oil extraction. How many political conflicts lie on the same locations?
-
Lilac dots represent human-made forest
burnings with the intent of opening new areas for agriculture... or eucalyptus
planting
-
Green dots represent japanese massive squid
fisheries.
