Gerhard Mercator: Eine gerechtere Welt

from Behind Science Hosted by Marie Eickhoff & Luisa Pfeiffenschneider

Seit dem 16. Jahrhundert prägt seine Erfindung unsere Perspektive auf die Welt. Jetzt möchten die Vereinten Nationen die Weltkarte von Gerhard Mercator ersetzen. Warum? Und was hat das alles mit Duisburg zu tun? Als realere Alternative zu Gerhards Karte empfehlen wir euch die Equal Earth Map. “Behind Science” gibt’s samstags – am Science-Samstag. Zwischendurch erreicht ihr uns per Mail und Instagram, und hier gibt's unsere Links, die gerade wichtig sind.
