Synopsis: This app allows you to look over a map of our world and place all sorts of layers of information. Pertaining to this unit, if you place a layer with the biomes of the world, you can have students click on any location in the world, and find out not only what type of environment (biome) it is, but you can also attain information on the status of humankind's impact on that area of the world.
