On September 28, 2018, a devastating tsunami struck Indonesia's Sulawesi island , leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. The coastal city of Palu and surrounding areas were hit hardest, with waves reaching up to 6 meters (20 feet) high in some locations. The tsunami was triggered by a powerful 7.5 magnitude earthquake that occurred just off the coast.   As the water receded, the true scale of the disaster became apparent. Hundreds of people lost their lives, with the final death toll reaching over 2,000. Countless more were left homeless, their livelihoods destroyed in an instant. The images that emerged in the aftermath were heartbreaking - collapsed buildings, overturned cars, and desperate survivors searching for loved ones among the rubble. In the days and weeks that followed, aid workers and volunteers from around the world poured into the affected areas. They faced enormous challenges, from blocked roads to shortages of basic supplies. Yet amid the tragedy, there were

Forests are vital to our planet's health, playing crucial roles in biodiversity, climate regulation, and supporting human livelihoods. Today, we'll explore the regions with the highest forest cover density and examine which countries lead in forest areas. This map provides a visual representation of forest cover density across the globe. The darker green areas indicate regions with the highest forest cover, while lighter shades represent less dense forest areas. Let's take a closer look at some of these key regions. Regions with the Highest Forest Cover Density Amazon Basin : Spanning several South American countries, the Amazon is the world's largest tropical rainforest. Its dense canopy is home to various plant and animal species. Congo Basin : Central Africa's Congo Basin is the second-largest tropical rainforest, covering parts of six countries. It's a biodiversity hotspot and a crucial carbon sink. Southeast Asian Rainforests : Countries like Indonesia,

The last glacial period, commonly known as the Last Ice Age, was a remarkable era in Earth's history that left an indelible mark on the landscapes of Europe. This dramatic chapter unfolded from around 115,000 to 11,700 years ago, sculpting the continent we know today.  During the peak of the Last Ice Age, vast sheets of ice blanketed large swaths of Europe. Thick glaciers entirely covered countries like Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and for thousands of years. The Scandinavian and British ice sheet extended as far south as northern Poland and Germany, while also engulfing almost all of Denmark. To the east, the ice crept into the territory of Russia, reaching about 300 km west of Moscow, and even touched parts of northern Belarus.  In the west, the British Isles were largely entombed in ice, with only a relatively small ice-free zone remaining in the south of the United Kingdom. The sheer scale of these glaciers is staggering—at the height of the Last
