帝企鹅

帝企鹅是世界上体型最大的企鹅，身高可达1.2米，体重达45千克，栖息于南极大陆极端恶劣的环境中。它们在隆冬的黑暗中、零下60°C以下的严寒里繁殖，雄鸟将唯一的蛋置于脚背上，藏于育卵囊下孵化长达65天，而雌鸟则在此期间出海觅食。数千只帝企鹅组成的群体通过循环交换位置、使个体轮流经过温暖的核心区域这一抱团取暖行为，堪称合作生存的典范。

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。
