The Great Greenwashing
Now's not the time to pussyfoot around the issues. In this game, you've got to be brave enough to name and shame. For too long, many of the companies, governments, and individuals claiming to do the most are nowhere near walking their talk. They've put up beautiful window dressing to distract from all the horrible stuff happening inside their houses.

Soon the definition expanded to describe the reintroduction of animal and plant species to habitats from which they had been excised. Some people began using it to mean the rehabilita...
Extreme Animals
Being the biggest fish in the world seems like it would help the whale shark survive. However, its size actually makes it slow and easy to attack. Similarly, giraffes height allows them to grab food other animals cant, but it makes drinking from a pool on the ground very awkward! Readers find out many more cases of extreme animal adaptions and their drawbacks. Fact boxes accompany full-color photographs of each animal, describing the animals most interesting physical features as well as their range, size, and lifespan.
