Ken broke up with Barbie after finding out some of the paper in her packaging comes from a Singapore company, Asian Pulp & Paper (APP), who clearcuts rain forests and destroys biodiversity in Indonesia.
Marcel Dicke makes an appetizing case for adding insects to everyone's diet. His message to squeamish chefs and foodies: delicacies like locusts and caterpillars compete with meat in flavor, nutrition and eco-friendliness.
A time-lapse of Planet Earth, created from images produced by the Rusiian geostationary Electro-L Weather Satellite. The images were obtained beginning on May 14th, and end on May 20th, 2011. The images are the largest whole disk images of our planet, each image is 121 megapixels, and the resolution is 1 kilometer per pixel. The satellite, which is in orbit 36,000 kilometers above the equator, snaps a picture of the planet every 30 minutes. The images have been interpolated (smoothed) to create this video. The images are taken in four different wavelengths of light, three visible, and one infrared. The satellite uses infrared light to see plants. The infrared light is made orange (so we can see it) in these images, and shows vegetation.
