"No organisms are more important to life as we know it than algae. In Slime, Ruth Kassinger gives this underappreciated group its due." -- Elizabeth Kolbert Say "algae" and most people think of pond scum. What they don't know is that without algae, none of us would exist. There are as many algae on Earth as stars in the universe, and they have been essential to life on our planet for eons. Algae created the Earth we know today, with its oxygen-rich atmosphere, abundant oceans, and coral reefs. Crude oil is made of dead algae, and algae are the ancestors of all plants. Today, seaweed production is a multibillion-dollar industry, with algae hard at work to make your sushi, chocolate milk, beer, paint, toothpaste, shampoo, and so much more. In Slime we'll meet the algae innovators working toward a sustainable future: from seaweed farmers in South Korea, to scientists using it to clean the dead zones in our waterways, to the entrepreneurs fighting to bring algae fuel and plastics to market. With a multitude of lively, surprising science and history, Ruth Kassinger takes readers on an around-the-world, behind-the-scenes, and into-the-kitchen tour. Whether you thought algae was just the gunk in your fish tank or you eat seaweed with your oatmeal, Slime will delight and amaze with its stories of the good, the bad, and the up-and-coming.Binding Type: Paperback

Cool, modern look
Color: Army Green, Size: Large
I bought this for my husband and looks great! The material is a little clingy, so I would get a one size up for a better fit. He has received numerous compliments. It fit him well and I washed it but played it flat to dry with no shrinkage problems. I highly recommend it. We ordered another one in a different color.

Color: Pink, Size: Medium

low-maintenance shirt that fits perfectly
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
This COOFANDY Casual Button Down is a fantastic addition to a summer wardrobe, offering both great fit and high quality. The material is impressively wrinkle-free, which keeps it looking sharp and crisp even after a full day of wear. It is specifically designed to be worn untucked, and the length is just right—offering a modern, relaxed silhouette that doesn't look sloppy. The fabric feels durable yet breathable, making it comfortable for both casual outings and slightly dressier occasions. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance shirt that fits perfectly right out of the wash, this is an excellent choice.
