Genetics - The Invisible World...

Jeron Iris

Microbiology is the branch of science that deals with the study of microorganisms, which are organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, and protozoa. Although these tiny life forms are invisible to the unaided eye, they play a vital role in the environment, human health, and various industrial processes. The field of microbiology encompasses a broad range of topics, from the structure and function of microorganisms to their interactions with humans, animals, plants, and the environment.
One of the primary aspects of microbiology is understanding the diversity of microorganisms. Bacteria, for example, are among the most abundant and diverse organisms on Earth. They exist in numerous environments, from the human body to extreme habitats like hot springs and deep-sea vents. Viruses, on the other hand, are unique in that they cannot replicate on their own and require a host cell to reproduce. Fungi and protozoa, while distinct from bacteria, also contribute significantly to ecosystems and human health, with some acting as pathogens and others playing key roles in decomposition and nutrient cycling.
The study of microbiology is crucial for several reasons. Microorganisms are central to processes such as digestion, fermentation, and the nitrogen cycle. They are also responsible for many diseases, which makes understanding their biology essential for developing effective treatments and preventive measures. Advances in microbiology have led to the discovery of antibiotics, vaccines, and other life-saving technologies. Additionally, microbiology has applications in biotechnology, where microorganisms are used in the production of food, medicines, and biofuels, as well as in environmental management through processes like bioremediation.

Legacy of Luna - The Story of a...

Julia Butterfly Hill

“A hero of the environmental movement . . . records a courageous act of civil disobedience that places her squarely in the tradition of Thoreau.” —Publishers Weekly 
 
On December 18, 1999, Julia Butterfly Hill’s feet touched the ground for the first time in over two years, as she descended from “Luna,” a thousand-year-old redwood in Humboldt County, California. 
 
Hill had climbed 180 feet up into the tree high on a mountain on December 10, 1997, for what she thought would be a two- to three-week-long “tree-sit.” The action was intended to stop Pacific Lumber, a division of the Maxxam Corporation, from the environmentally destructive process of clear-cutting the ancient redwood and the trees around it. The area immediately next to Luna had already been stripped and, because, as many believed, nothing was left to hold the soil to the mountain, a huge part of the hill had slid into the town of Stafford, wiping out many homes. 
 
The twenty-five-year-old never planned to become what some have called her—the Rosa Parks of the environmental movement. She never expected to be honored as one of Good Housekeeping’s ”Most Admired Women of 1998” and George magazine’s “20 Most Interesting Women in Politics,” to be featured in People magazine’s “25 Most Intriguing People of the Year” issue, or to receive hundreds of letters weekly from young people around the world. Although her brave vigil and indomitable spirit have made her a heroine in the eyes of many, Julia’s story is a simple, heartening tale of love, conviction, and the profound courage she has summoned to fight for our earth’s legacy.
