Timelapse Films Of Environmental Degradation

Have you ever wonderful just how much the area that you live in has grown over the last three decades?

Time Magazine's website has published a searchable database showing what has happened to the Earth as populations, and the inevitable development they create, have exploded over that time period.

These are Landsat satellite images that have been assembled into three second animations. There are eight examples offered, but you can pop a location into the search box, bring up any area on Earth that you choose and see what's happened between 1984 and now.
