Talk:Geography of Papua New Guinea

a bit of detail on why i've removed "severe drought" from the Environment Issues section: while there were some localised unusual droughts in a couple of areas in 1997 and in 2001 (parts of the Highlands and New Ireland), in general drought is very rare in PNG. i would argue that it is not regarded as a significant environmental issue in the country, in comparison with the major threats posed by forestry, agricultural clearance, and mining. 12:09, 19 December 2003 Wantok

Complete rewrite
I'm planning a complete rewrite of this page - turning the CIA data into readable prose, wikify, lots of expansion, finding useful images. Time permitting, this should happen over the next few days.

Maritime border
It'd be good to be able to see where the PNG/Torres Strait (Australia) maritime border is, since PNG is now leasing Daru fishing rights to the Chinese. Special:Contributions/2001:8003:29CB:7800:199A:649D:69E1:A7DA

Length
How long is the country of Papua New Guinea? Whenever I look it up, it gives me the length of the island it's on. 75.84.226.208 (talk) 18:56, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
