Did you know that the ancestors of the organisms that stain the roofs of houses in our neighborhoods were the first organisms to be photosynthetic and release oxygen in our atmosphere, without which we would not exist. In Slime, How Algae Created Us, Plague Us, And Just Might Save Us, author Ruth Kassingger describes how they started in the oceans and evolved to prepare other organisms to conquer the land. Then how they are used for food and their industrial uses. Then how they may help us or harm us as the climate changes. Check your pantry or visit one of the international grocery stores in the area to see what algae they sell. This program is hosted by the Webster Groves Nature Study Society Nature Book Group but being a member is not required to participate. Scott Sarantakis
