Heres a little mod a made with some textures i got from the Motherlode...
Its set in the year 2294 when earth is deep into a new ice age.
The Earth from space. Note the storms forming over the Pacific Ocean.
North America is covered in ice, But many people still manage to survive in the Hostile conditions by blocking the advancing Glaciers with walls and barriers.
From space, North America looks like it did in 2000, But assuming that is true is dilusional. As the world is, In technological status, Much, Much different.
The Moon of 2294 is much more close than it was in our time. In 2039 an asteroid struck the Moon and shifted its orbit closer and closer until Humans forced it into a stable orbit. It has since been heavily colonized by Humans.

Earth Texture: Don Edwards (Northern Winter Southern Summer Earth Map)
Earth Night Texture: Praesepe (8k/16k Earth Night Maps)
Earth Clouds: John M. Dollan (Beta Canum Venaticorum System)
Earth Spec Map: John van Vliet(?) (Earth Specular Map)
Earth Normal Map: Don Edwards (8K Earth Normal Map)
Moon Texture: John van Vliet (1K/2K/4K Moon Maps)
Moon Night Texture: Me (Photoshopped moon texture)
Moon Normal Map: John van Vliet (2K/4K Moon Normal Maps)
As you can see above, I claim no Ownership of any of these textures. All i did was match them up to create this mod.
