The tundra is described when Piper sees it from the airplane: “as far as she can see in any direction the earth is made of rust-coloured flatlands broken up by odd-shaped‚ glistening

Areas which have low population densities are like the Sahara because of the fact that it gets 40mm of rain a year‚ but also areas of high humidity like the Amazon basin‚ and then rather obviously low temperatures like in North Canada in the tundra. In the temperate and moderate climate areas of the world population density is much higher‚ this is due to the reasonable rainfall and temperatures or if you have high temperature and high rainfall (allows for double cropping).

Theatre can be used in connection with science or other subjects
