__Google Map Overlays__ from an Alan November presentation. I followed the tutorial video and was able to view the future effects of sea level rise and find other overlays. **[]** Log in to your Google Account and go to Google Maps (may have to click “more”). Click **on “My Maps” - "Browse the directory"** Also under Browse the Directory, in the search Google Maps Content, you can enter the word "earthquakes" and see the latest earthquakes. There are several that you can see. Then** click** “Add to my maps” and view. Go back to your maps and view. I like the one from USGS website displayed with the most recent earthquakes and where they are. 
 * You can type in “Sea Level Rise” or “Effects of Sea Level Rise” to get to the Google Maps Overlay I told you about. Use the slider to see the effects in different areas.
