Geog 7 Lab 1

Map showing parking lots and valet parking at Hollywood Bowl
This is a map of the general area of the Hollywood Bowl. I found this map on the Hollywood Bowl website at this url http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/visit/getting-to-the-bowl/other-options#parking. I chose this map because I went to see the band Wilco at the bowl on Sunday night with my girlfriend.

 


This is a map of global deforestation and and land degradation in dry lands. I found this map on a website called Cryonie at this url http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.cryonie.com/en/world/images/map-deforestation.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.cryonie.com/en/world/deforestation.php&h=837&w=1541&sz=168&tbnid=fLCQ-DtqPMHq4M:&tbnh=65&tbnw=120&zoom=1&usg=__E65KAGrSogS-2kLhSRmN7x1AsRg=&docid=1d5j6aBBvPmrjM&sa=X&ei=eatsUOW_OcGtiQLkg4GIAg&ved=0CCIQ9QEwAA&dur=1643. I chose this map because deforestation is a hugely important issue. It not only destroys vast biodiversity, it also removes trees that help produce oxygen in our highly polluted atmosphere.

 This is a map of Coronado Island in San Diego. I found this map on a website called Coronado Main Street at this url http://www.coronadomainstreet.com/csite/cms/185.htm/. I chose this map because my visits to Coronado are always enjoyable. I find it odd that they call this place an island even though it is a small peninsula, but then again not everyone cares about proper naming of land forms.
