Globe showing Europe-Africa

The Earth turned to show Europe and Africa. It means the world, the planet and global matters, and people in Europe, Africa and the Middle East often pick it because it shows their side of the globe.

Travel plans, Earth Day posts and climate talk use it with 🌱 or ♻️. It also tags international news or 'worldwide shipping'.

It has two siblings, 🌎 and 🌏, which turn the globe to other regions.
