With it being a few days since my last post and seeing that tomorrow the family is going to the Farmer Jason concert, I thought I would just grab a few of my kids favorite topics.
First off, this story about boats entitled “Earthrace Boat Crosses Globe in 60 Days to Break Record” by Jason Sahler over at at Inhabitat.
My son wants to invent a solar sub but since that hasn’t happened yet, there’s this story over at ENN via Reuters called “Japan Firms to Work on Solar-Powered Ship” by Osamu Tsukimori.
Now for my daughter comes this story, “Fishing Technololgy Letting Turtles off the Hook” at Science Daily from the WWF.
Following that story is this one, also from ENN entitled “Marine Turtle Conservation Moves into High Gear“. Good news for our friends the turtles.
Lastly, this article comes from LiveScience called “Fossil of Ancient Pregnant Turtle Discovered” by Jeanna Bryner. Fascinating stuff.
This next article is a great read on the topic of kids and nature called “What Do Robots, Sir David Attenborough and Kids Have in Common?” at Treehugger. A must read for all parents.
Finally, while I said kids, I never gave an age limit. So here’s one article on something near and dear to my heart, dams. It’s entitled “Maine Conservationists Reach Milestone in Plan to Buy 3 Dams” by Katie Zezima at the New York Times.
Play on!
