Problems with atmospheric pressure

Here you can watch some videos about problems related with the atmospheric pressure:

1) Chapter of "Desafío Extremo" with Jesús Calleja. They climb the Kilimanjaro very well-prepared, but some of the tourists suffer the altitude sickness (mal de altura).

2) El "síncope de la apnea" for scuba divers, specially those without any oxigen equiptment (inmersión por apnea)

3) Problems with the pressure in the cabin in a comercial flight

However, remember these situations are produced by incorrect human behaviors. It is necessary to respect Nature and also the limits of the human body, but it is no good to be scared neither. You can practice all these activities and sports if you want, but always been responsible and following a very correct equipment and previous preparation :-)

Unit 4: The atmosphere. Weather and climate

Here you are a presentation about our Unit 4: Weather and climate 

You can maybe find it useful in order to prepare and study this unit, as an optional material for this unit. 

Unit 3: The continents

Here you can see a presentation about the unit 6 in our book: the world´s natural environment.

Pay attention because the order of the continents here is not the same than in our book. Except by that, the rest is quite similar and this presentation can be useful in order to study and understand the better this unit. 

The best way to prepare this unit, in addition of our lessons, the blog and our book, is to play with THIS WEBPAGE. Notices you can select language, so you can play the same maps in Spanish and English. Practice as more as you want and have fun! ;-)
