Eisriesenwelt -The World's Largest Ice Cave

The Eisriesenwelt (German for "World of the Ice Giants") is a natural limestone ice cave located in Werfen, Austria, about 40 km south of Salzburg. It is the largest ice cave in the world extending more than 42km.

Eisriesenwelt Cave was created by the Salzach river as it flowed through the mountain eroding passageways nearly 100 million years ago. Over the course of thousands of years cracks and crevices in the limestone became more developed as water eroded the rocks away. In winter, when the air inside the mountain is warmer than outside, cold air streams into the mountain and reduces the temperature of the lower areas of the caves to below freezing point. In spring the water from melting snow seeps through the cracks in the rock and when it reaches the colder lower areas of the caves it freezes and turns slowly into the wonderful ice formations visible inside the caves.

Although the cave has a length of 42 km, only the first kilometer, the area that tourists are allowed to visit, is covered in ice. The rest of the cave is formed of limestone. Since the entrance to the caves is open year-round, chilly winter winds blow into the cave and freeze the snow inside. In summer, a cold wind from inside the cave blows toward the entrance and prevents the formations from melting.

Refrigerate Without Electricity

Take a smaller pot and put it inside of a larger pot. Fill the space in between them with wet sand, and cover the top with a wet cloth. When the water evaporates, it pulls the heat out with it, making the inside cold. It's a natural, cheap, easy to use and even portable refrigerator. So, instead of perishable foods rotting after only three days, they can last up to three weeks using this method

And if the baobab from southern Madagascar is the giant of the family (20-25 meters high), its African cousin reports by an impressive waist size: 24.50 meters (8-meter) for the largest known around Dakar (Senegal).

Mostly bare, leafless, shadowless, crushed Sun, baobab tends its short and winding branches skyward, its strange silhouette standing out with an amazing omnipresence in the vast semi-desert.

In Senegal, the baobab seems to enjoy the vicinity of the sea, as found in large numbers in the peninsula of Cape Verde and throughout the coastline, which stretches to the South of Dakar. Locating in the sandy soils of the coast, it juts sometimes in the same vicinity of the strike. It is also widespread in the Sudanese area, penetrating far to the North and East in the Sahel region, sinking in the South until bordering the Gulf of Guinea.
