The Italian village of Curon was deliberately flooded in 1950 to build a reservoir, drowning the old town under the water, and to this day the bell tower of its submerged 14th-century church still rises alone out of the lake, the only part of a village that otherwise exists only underwater.

The stalactites in some of the world's most visited show caves are being slowly killed by the breath of the tourists who come to see them, because the carbon dioxide and moisture from millions of exhalations changes the air chemistry enough to corrode the very formations people paid to admire.

The famous brass line at Greenwich where millions of tourists stand with one foot in each hemisphere is in the wrong place, because when the world switched to satellite positioning, true zero longitude quietly shifted about 100 metres east, leaving the historic Prime Meridian marker no longer at zero at all.

In Stockholm, the heat pouring off the city's data centres is no longer wasted but piped into the district heating network, enough to warm around 30,000 apartments a year, which means the warmth thrown off by people streaming films and storing photos now quietly heats thousands of homes across the city.

Between 1989 and 1997 the United States shipped more than 50 million pet turtles abroad, and enough of the red-eared sliders were later dumped in ponds and rivers when they grew too big that the species now outcompetes native turtles on every continent but Antarctica, listed among the 100 worst invaders on Earth.

More than 2,500 retired New York subway cars were dropped into the Atlantic between 2001 and 2010, not as illegal dumping but as a planned reef programme, and marine biologists who kept watch found the sunken trains quickly turned into some of the richest artificial habitats along the eastern seaboard.

In 1973 a reportedly drunk driver flattened a tree in the middle of the Sahara, which sounds unremarkable until you learn it was the only tree for 250 miles around, a 300-year-old acacia so isolated it was marked on maps covering half a continent.

The rivalry between Adidas and Puma began as a family quarrel so bitter that the two brothers behind it were eventually buried at opposite ends of the same cemetery, in the same small Bavarian town their falling-out had split in half for the rest of the century.

In the 1990s a few Burmese pythons, once pet snakes let loose or escaped in Florida, found the Everglades so perfectly suited to them that they have since bred into a population thought to run into the tens of thousands, and in the worst-hit areas the raccoons, opossums and rabbits have almost entirely vanished from the night.

A handful of huskies imported from Labrador in the 1940s and topped up with dogs from Greenland became the ancestors of a sledge dog population that hauled supplies across the ice for nearly half a century, until a treaty banning all non-native animals forced the last of them to be removed from the continent entirely in February 1994.
