"Breathing Earth"
"Animation showing the 12-month cycle of all plant life on Earth - whether on land or in the ocean. Rather than showing a specific year, the animation shows an average yearly cycle by combining data from many satellite instruments and averaging them over multiple years."

Coffee in the 17th C.
London’s
coffee craze began in 1652 when Pasqua Rosée, the Greek servant of a
coffee-loving British Levant merchant, opened London’s first coffeehouse
(or rather, coffee shack) against the stone wall of St Michael’s
churchyard in a labyrinth of alleys off Cornhill. Coffee was a smash
hit; within a couple of years, Pasqua was selling over 600 dishes of
coffee a day to the horror of the local tavern keepers. For anyone who’s
ever tried seventeenth-century style coffee, this can come as something
of a shock — unless, that is, you like your brew “black as hell, strong
as death, sweet as love”, as an old Turkish proverb recommends, and
shot through with grit. - See more at:
