The Cartography blog links to maps of the human footprint from the Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment. From the blog: "The Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment has put together a series of maps showing the effects humans are having on the landscape of the world. Data sets include population, land area, cropland area, major crops and land suitability. [...] The resolution is not the finest (0.5 degrees)."
