Abstract
The damage that building roads has on the landscape is well documented. From deforestation and the unwanted spread of exotic species, to territory fragmentation and chemical changes in the local environment, the ecological effects are devastating. This paper presents a soon to be revealed global map for road building that could show planners how to help rather th harm the environment.
