Google Earth has announced an exciting new update that shows how the planet has changed across nearly 40 years.
Google Earth collected 24 million satellite photos from the past 37 years that were used to make Timelapse, a map that shows the Earth changing, both because of humans and nature itself.
 
Using Google Earth, Timelapse lets you choose any part of the planet you'd like to watch and see how it has changed every year since 1984. To help better understand why those changes are happening, Google Earth has also developed five "guided tours" for Timelapse.
 
Warming Planet shows the effects of climate change, like melting ice in Greenland, or the top of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, which has gone from being covered in snow to having almost none at all.
 
Sources of Energy lets you see how producing energy affects the planet, including both fossil fuels and renewable sources. With Changing Forests, you can visit the Amazon rainforest in Bolivia and watch large parts of it become farms. Or you can see natural forests being cut down to make space for palm trees in Indonesia. These trees are grown for palm oil, which is used to make many everyday products, from food to soap.
 
You can also watch how cities are changing and developing with Urban Expansion, or see how nature is always changing by itself with Fragile Beauty.
 
🌏Summary
Google Earth 宣布一項令人興奮的更新，這些新功能將能夠顯示出地球在近四十年來的變化。Google Earth使用過去三十七年共兩千四百萬張衛星照片，製作縮時攝影。這將能呈現出地球因人類和大自然活動而產生的變化。你可以選擇地球上任何你想觀察的地區，來看看從1984年以來每年有什麼樣的變化。為了幫助進一步理解這些變化產生的原因，Google Earth還為了縮時攝影推出五種「導覽」。
「暖化的地球」顯示出氣候變遷的影響，像是格陵蘭的融冰，從原本被白雪覆蓋的狀態，到現在幾乎完全沒有積雪層。
「能量來源」讓你看到生產能源如何影響地球，其中包含化石燃料和再生能源。
