Astonishing, amazing algae! From microscopic plankton to 200' long seaweed, algae created oxygen on Earth and evolved into plants and trees. Everybody eats algae – or eats someone who does. . .
A fun story of surprising algae facts and uses, from algae airplane fuel and sneakers to camouflaging sloths and keeping baby otters from drifting out to sea, algae are vital and amazing – and can help fix the climate crisis!
This story is a vital arts and science collaboration, illustrated by artists and by scientists!
