A new map of the Earth

Map of the Earth after 2012.

a. Map of Michael Gordon Skaliona. It is called the second, Edward Casey, ostensibly talking to some minds, who tells him all sorts of interesting details about our future. The theory certainly has the right to life.

As we see, from the land, which we happily overlooked in Google Earth, little remains. Western Europe to wave waved and disappeared into the depths of the sea, North America and western Russia, too, turned to Atlantis after. Optimistic and does not smell, is to climb higher into the mountains with inflatable mattresses and wait...

All dark areas marked on the map will be flooded. Agree, this card is more optimistic, although less colorful. Again, sorry for America....

3. Map Zeta Talk. Map Zeta, we - those aliens who are present on Earth, and not only estessno, and give us any guidance through a ...

How then can you comment? . America - no comment....

So, to summarize. In any version, from the familiar to us of the atlas will be left absolutely nothing. Those who drew up the map data clearly had a grudge against America... Choose a place where you find yourself in the relative safety of quite simple, it is necessary to combine all three cards, and estimate that we will remain on the surface condition. The higher the better. If you have to have a submarine - is a wholly-owned solution to the problem, though not for long. You decide, because of time, as they say, there are not many.
