The video starts with a view of the Earth from space, showing the continents and oceans. The view then zooms in on Africa, where several cities are labeled with their names and the current temperature in degrees Celsius. The cities include Algiers, Dakar, Tripoli, Cairo, Addis Ababa, and Cape Town. The temperatures range from 16°C to 37°C. The video is a loop of the same sequence of frames.
