Global Warming: Early Warning Signs Map is a poster-sized map of the world, which illustrates global climate change. It includes global warming Fingerprints (places with direct manifestations of widespread and long-term trend toward warmer global temperatures) and global warming Harbingers (events that foreshadow the types of impacts likely to beomce more frequent and widespread with continued warming). In addition to viewing the entire global map, you can click on individual continents to explore the current local indicators of global warming. The map was produced by the Union of Concerned Scientists with 6 other environmental groups. The website also includes a link to a Curriculum Guide to use with the global map. The guides consists of four different activities that can be downloaded using Adobe acrobat. The site also contains a link to the findings from the first US National Assessment of the Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change.
