Oklahoma farmer named Carl Barnes. Barnes, now in his 80s, is half-Cherokee, half Scotch-Irish descent. He began growing older corn varieties in his adult years as a way to reconnect with his heritage.
In growing these older corn varieties, Barnes was able to isolate ancestral types that had been lost to Native American tribes when they were relocated in the 1800s to what is now Oklahoma. This led to an exchange of ancient corn seed with people he had met and made friends with all over the country.
At the same time, Barnes began selecting, saving, and replanting seeds from particularly colourful cobs. According to Barnes, the rainbow seed originally came from a crossing of "Pawnee miniature popcorns with an Osage red flour corn and also another Osage corn called ‘Greyhorse'."
'Glass Gems,' seen here, was the title that Barnes' protegee and fellow farmer, Greg Schoen came up with for a blue-green and pink-purple corn he grew in 2007.

Our 14-year-old dog Abbey died last month. The day after she passed away my 4-year-old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could so, and she dictated these words:
Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog? She died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her. She likes to swim and play with balls. I am sending a picture of her so when you see her you will know that she is my dog. I really miss her.
Love, Meredith
We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith and addressed it to God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven. That afternoon she dropped it into the letterbox at the post office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her that I thought He had.
Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, 'To Meredith' in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, 'When a Pet Dies.' Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its opened envelope. On the opposite page were the picture of Abbey & Meredith and this note:
Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven. Having the picture was a big help and I recognized her right away.
Abbey isn't sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. Since we don't need our bodies in heaven, I don't have any pockets to keep your picture in so I am sending it back to you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey by.
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me. What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially for you. I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much. By the way, I'm easy to find. I am wherever there is love.
Love, God

Bamboo is a fascinating plant, offering a range of environmental benefits alongside its well-known reputation for rapid growth. While it is sometimes criticized for being invasive, particularly in the case of "running" bamboo species that spread aggressively, the advantages of bamboo far outweigh this drawback when managed properly.

One of the most remarkable features of bamboo is its extraordinary growth rate. In fact, bamboo holds the title of the fastest-growing plant in the world, with some species capable of shooting up by more than 47 inches in just 24 hours. Under optimal conditions, bamboo can grow over a meter per day, and new shoots can reach their full height in less than a year. This incredible growth potential makes bamboo a highly renewable resource, especially when compared to traditional softwood trees that can take two to three decades to mature.

In addition to its rapid growth, bamboo plays a critical role in oxygen production and carbon dioxide absorption. A grove of bamboo releases 35% more oxygen than trees, making it an excellent plant for improving air quality. It also acts as a valuable carbon sink, absorbing carbon dioxide at a rate of 17 tons per hectare annually. Given how fast bamboo grows, it’s easy to see how this plant can help mitigate the effects of climate change.

Bamboo is also low-maintenance, requiring no fertilizer to thrive. It naturally self-mulches by dropping its leaves, allowing the plant to reuse its own nutrients. Bamboo is drought-resistant, capable of growing in harsh, dry conditions, including desert environments. Its deep and wide-reaching root system helps prevent soil erosion, making it a valuable tool for stabilizing landscapes and protecting against land degradation.

In terms of practicality, bamboo’s strength and versatility have made it a popular building material for centuries. It has been used as scaffolding, in construction, and even for bridges and houses. Despite being lightweight, bamboo is incredibly sturdy and durable, often outperforming many conventional materials. Moreover, bamboo can be harvested in just three to five years, compared to the 20 to 30 years needed for most softwood trees, providing a sustainable alternative to traditional timber.

Not only is bamboo a versatile and eco-friendly material, but it also acts as a natural air conditioner, cooling the surrounding environment by up to 8 degrees in the summer. This makes bamboo an ideal choice for areas that need relief from high temperatures while benefiting from its other environmental advantages.

While some species of bamboo do pose a risk of invasiveness due to their spreading root systems, this can be effectively managed with proper planting techniques and regular maintenance. Not all bamboo species are invasive, and with the right care, bamboo can be a positive addition to a variety of ecosystems.

In conclusion, bamboo’s numerous benefits, from its role in reducing carbon emissions and stabilizing soil to its strength as a sustainable building material, make it a valuable resource for both environmental and practical applications. With careful management, bamboo can be used to enhance landscapes without the risk of invasiveness, helping to create a greener, more sustainable future.

One acre of h**p produces 25 % more oxygen than one acre of forest and guarantees a cellulose supply that is approximately twice as high.
One acre of h**p grows within 6 months, while a forest grows for decades before it is harvested.
By making h**p paper, we could save millions of hectares of forest every year.
H**p can be used in textile production, construction and even as biofuel.

The platypus is possibly the weirdest animal: it’s a mammal but lays eggs, has a duck-like bill, a beaver-like tail, otter-like feet, and is venomous. It possesses electroreceptors for locating prey, eyes with double cones, no stomach, and 10 chromosomes. It's also fluorescent and glows under UV light.
