Plant And Animal Nitrous Oxide

The destruction of the rainforests is one of the
most crucial environmental issues of our time. It
is also one of the most misunderstood and
neglected. There has been so much propaganda and
publicity attached to this crisis that Save the
Rainforests is becoming almost as clich as Save
the Whales. Why dont we take this problem more
seriously? Is it because we, as Americans, simply
dont understand the devastating, long-terms
consequences that continued deforestation of the
rainforests would have? ...

Einstein. The name itself seems to bring a vision,
in modern times, of a little man carelessly clad
in baggy pants with disordered halo of white hair
and soulful brown eyes. Though the physical
description of Einstein might not seem genius
material, Einstein was a modern Merlin. Albert
Einstein conjured and revolutionized ideas of
space, time and motion. Scientists idolize Albert
Einstein for he is most eminent among them, at
least in this century. In person he was childlike.
