藍鯨

蓝鲸是地球上已知存在过的最大动物，体长可达33米，体重达200吨，其心脏单独就重达一辆小型轿车的重量。分布于各大洋，在极地觅食地和热带繁殖地之间进行迁徙。它们是滤食性动物，每日可消耗多达4吨磷虾。蓝鲸被列为濒危物种，20世纪捕鲸活动使其濒临灭绝，目前全球种群估计约为1万至2.5万头。

Rice

水稻（Oryza sativa）是人类历史上最重要的粮食作物，养活了全球超过一半的人口，是亚洲、非洲和拉丁美洲的主食谷物。约9,000年前在中国长江流域从野生稻（Oryza rufipogon）驯化而来，水稻种植塑造了文明、景观和生态系统。淹水稻田耕作为候鸟、两栖动物和水生无脊椎动物创造了广泛的湿地生境，同时也产生大量甲烷排放。
