Honest, paywall-free news is rare. Please support our boldly independent journalism with a donation of any size.
“The Green Ninja,” a character created by a climate scientist and his team, provides an entertaining and educational way to help children – and everyone else – grasp the intricacies of climate change and learn what they can personally do to become involved in fighting it. See additional details about the series or head straight to this week’s episode, “Burrito Gases: The Field of Beans.” (Hint: these are not the kind of “gases” you might be thinking of!)
He’s back! Dr. Burrito is on the move and on this episode of the Green Ninja Show, he makes house calls and visits a couple different burrito farms. He does this so he can analyze the air at each farm to see what kind of greenhouse gases are being produced and how much. There are three gases that burrito farms can produce that cause our atmosphere to get a little gassy: Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4), and Nitrous Oxide (N2O).
We can keep these gases out of the atmosphere by not supporting their production.
Learn more about these unhealthy greenhouse gases and join Dr. Burrito on the farm.
An urgent fundraising appeal: 9 Days to raise $50,000
Thank you for reading Truthout today. We have a brief message before you go —
Unfortunately, donations are down for Truthout at a time when media is under immense pressure. Trump is arresting journalists, Big Tech is censoring independent news, and economic conditions for media have been worsening for years.
Simultaneously, movement media is vital in the fight against Trump’s authoritarian reign. Our mandate to tell the truth, share strategies for resistance, and speak against fascism is ever more urgent in this deluge of political censorship. Yet, we are struggling to meet our publishing costs when our work is so urgently needed.
If you can support Truthout with a one-time or monthly donation, you will make a significant impact on our work. Please give today during our fundraiser (9 days left).
