NEW 7 WONDERS OF NATURE

NEW 7 WONDERS OF NATURE

The process of confirming the provisional New7Wonders of Nature results is now underway, and includes the following:

- The validation of all phone and SMS voting results.
- The verification of the calculation.
- The preparation of the Official Inauguration event for each confirmed New7Wonder of Nature.

Organizer will update and announce as each one of the New7Wonders of Nature is confirmed. We expect to start doing this in early 2012 once the validation, verification and preparation process is complete for each one. 


At that point each confirmed New7Wonder of Nature will host an Official Inauguration at the location and in the capital city, during which the Official New7Wonders of Nature Plaque will be ceremonially presented as final confirmation of the status as one of the Official New7Wonders of Nature as voted by the people of the world.

Total voting set a new world record for N7W, many hundreds of millions of votes and a multiple of the votes achieved in our first campaign to elect the man-made New 7 Wonders of the World declared in 2007. 


We will update on the exact number of votes once the confirmation process is fully completed.

The Amazon Rainforest, also known as Amazonia, the Amazon jungle or the Amazon Basin, encompasses seven million square kilometers (1.7 billion acres), though the forest itself occupies some 5.5 million square kilometers (1.4 billion acres), located within nine nations. The Amazon represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests and comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world. The Amazon River is the largest river in the world by volume, with a total flow greater than the top ten rivers worldwide combined. It accounts for approximately one-fifth of the total world river flow and has the biggest drainage basin on the planet. Not a single bridge crosses the Amazon.
