To Do

1. I’d like you to take some time to view it, and add a comment to this post (below)on what slide (or slides) you found most interesting, and why? (PS Health Warning-ask yourself are all these facts true; are there any you find hard to believe? Let me know!)

2. We are now looking at Brazil; we are interested in how it compares to the USA. Make sure you have completed the climate graph for Manuas on page 5 of your booklet. Manuas is a large city on the Amazon. We have looked at Phoenix; now write up in your jotter how you think Manaus compares with Phoenix. To help you, also look at this site here.
