The lowest is Lake 'Asal (153 m/502 ft below sea level) in Djibouti. The Forests cover about one-fifth of the total land area of the continent.
    The Woodlands, bush lands, grasslands and thickets occupy about two-fifth.
    And the Deserts and their extended margins have the remaining two-fifths of African land.

    African Studies Videos in the Harvard Libraries The acquisition of African Studies videos is expensive and labor intensive, but they represent an invaluable resource for teaching and research on Africa. At Harvard the main collection of these videos is located in Widener Library, but there are also smaller collections in the Harvard Libraries listed below. The most accurate way to determine the status of an individual African Studies video is to do a search through the HOLLIS catalogue of all Harvard Library holdings at http://lib.harvard.edu Harvard's Libraries serve the University's current faculty, students, staff, and researchers who hold valid Harvard IDs. Since policies on admittance and borrowing, hours, and services vary for each of them, it is best to contact them directly for details.

    Mutilated Humanity
    Ashley Montagu Presented at The Second International Symposium on Circumcision, San Francisco, California, April 30-May 3, 1991. Perhaps the most profound name ever bestowed upon a species, was that given to human beings by Karl Linnaeus in 1753 in his great book Systema Naturae - namely, Homo Sapiens . Linnaeus briefly epitomized this with the words; "Man, know thyself" ( Homo nosce Te ipsum ). This sounds like an injunction, and it is; but it was also intended to underscore the fact that human beings are the only creatures in the world capable of self-consciousness and contemplation and characterized by an unparalleled creativity. Yet an impartial survey of Homo sapiens ' record since 1753, would suggest that Oscar Wilde, as usual, was on the mark when he said that Homo sapiens was the most premature definition ever given a species. A possible improvement might be, in demotic English, "the wise guy, too clever by far for his own good." Perhaps the more appropriate appellation at this stage of human maldevelopment would be Homo sap , "the addlepated one." Not that the wisdom is not there as a potentiality.

    endorse this call for action
    To: all organizations and movements concerned with fossil fuel and mining projects Friends and colleagues, Friends of the Earth International is seeking your support for a campaign that aims to phase out International Financial Institution financing for fossil fuel and mining projects. In the past several years, public financial institutions such as the Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) and Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) have come under increasing fire for their large volume of lending in the fossil fuel and mining sectors. As concerns about climate change escalate, and as the development impacts of extractive industries become increasingly dubious, citizens around the world are questioning the role that publicly financed institutions have in perpetuating extraction-based economies and fossil fuel dependence rather than clean energy. Acknowledging this concern, the World Bank agreed to undertake a heavily flawed process of examining its role in the fossil fuel and mining sectors. In response, Friends of the Earth International has produced a position paper calling for an immediate moratorium and eventual total phase-out of International Financial Institution (IFI) investments in these sectors. This call is directed at the World Bank, as well as the rest of the MDBs and ECAs. The Oilwatch Network has similarly called for a moratorium on investments in these sectors.
