Paul Fleischman offers teens an environmental wake-up call and a tool kit for decoding the barrage of conflicting information confronting them. We're living in an Ah-Ha moment. Take 250 years of human ingenuity. Add abundant fossil fuels. The result: a population and lifestyle never before seen. The downsides weren't visible for centuries, but now they are. Suddenly everything needs rethinking - suburbs, cars, fast food, cheap prices. It's a changed world. This book explains it. Not with isolated facts, but the principles driving attitudes and events, from vested interests to denial to big-country syndrome. Because money is as important as molecules in the environment, science is joined with politics, history, and psychology to provide the briefing needed to comprehend the 21st century. Extensive back matter, including a glossary, bibliography, and index, as well as numerous references to websites, provides further resources.Binding Type: Paperback

This is one “under the radar” gem!!
Size: Large, Color: Coral
This is one “under the radar” gem!! Very strong internal squeaker and way tougher than it looks. My big 125lb Shepard-Husky mix gave it heck, then made it his new buddy. He’ll occasionally give it the business but on the whole, it’s surprisingly tough and my big boy loves it. Nice price!!

Cute but small
Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green
Cute stuffy and has not yet ripped. While my dogs plays with it, the toy is a bit small for him. For reference he is 120lbs.

Mini sticks for all the good boys!
My boys LOVE these benebones ! Not to mentioned they are adorable having a mini stick in their mouths. The vet noted my lab needed to start chewing on bones again due to build up & I refused to give them anything other than benebones. They have held up very well & are used daily. The size is plenty big for my 80lb lab and 60lb Australian shepherd. The overall dollar value is great as these are lasting longer than the fish one they normally destroy in a week or two. Overall entertaining for not only my dogs but for my husband and I. Will be buying more in the future.

Long-lasting
Our Labradors (6 month old puppy and almost 3 year old) love to chew on this; they even chew on it at the same time, one on each end of it! These Power Bones last them so long, too. They had the mermaid one for months before I finally tossed it because it was down to a small piece. We've had the hockey stick for over 2 months now and it's only chewed at the ends so far, so I expect it to last quite a while!
