UN to consider new world map
The United Nations General Assembly has adopted a resolution to replace the Mercator projection with the Equal Earth map, aiming to provide a more accurate representation of countries' sizes, especially Africa. The move, supported by most member states, responds to concerns that traditional maps distort the scale of regions, diminishing perceptions of Africa and other southern regions. France announced it will move away from the Mercator projection, and the resolution encourages digital platforms to adopt the new map for better global accuracy.
