A great collection of videos - great for kicking off earth science units. Use the K-5 collection for science. The 6-8 section would be great shared with math teacher colleagues!

Very intriguing site listing live statistics including world population, species extinct, forest lost, forest replanted and an oil depletion timer. Click on Population Counters (globe on the right) to see the populations on each continent as the globe slowly spins around. Very cool!

A visualization from NOAA that shows what the earth would look like if all water drained out. Good to show so students can see the mid-ocean ridges, ring of fire boundary, etc.
