Help! I remember seeing someone post some resources for students to practise the skill of “which direction the photographer is standing” applying to #osmaps as some questions like this have come up on #aqa #gcsegeog - can anyone help me find this? Thanks 😊

Lots of maps of Russia appearing at the moment. It's worth noting how many of the map projections we are familiar with over exaggerate the size of countries at higher latitudes. Russia is big. But perhaps not as big as many might think.

WOW! Solar canals in India 🇮🇳! Solar panels being integrated into canals in Gujarat. It helps with evaporative losses, doesn’t use extra land and keeps solar panels cooler. Huge step forward for solar industry! buff.ly/32yrc3p…

A topic where I see one of the biggest gaps between public opinion & recommendations from scientists is palm oil 🌴🦧 Companies often boycott palm oil to look sustainable to consumers. But a ban is rarely the recommendation from experts. 🧵on why it's a complex topic

The 10-day isolation for Omicron contacts is where it can all go wrong for year 11 and exams. If one tests positive then it could be 16ish others sent home. Over and over. ☹
