The UN released an atlas entitled Worldprocessor has posted about 70 different globe images displaying various thematic data such as acid rain, positions of nuclear submarines, earthquakes and refugee movements. Content is displayed on images of globes. There is no order to any of these and the entire effort seems more artistic than cartographic. There is little or no explanation of content on most globes and some globes represent unusual ideas. The blank globe is, well, blank - no islands, oceans or continents, just a simple grey ball. Another globe focuses on nameless places.
