This is a campaign by Rockson Rapu, our guide on a journey from the familiar black gold to the untapped potential of oil palm's rich red essence. But why palm oil, you might ask?

This book is a collection of essays about living alongside animals and paying attention to what that closeness quietly changes. It is not a guide to grief, training, or healing, and it does not offer conclusions or lessons meant to travel neatly from one life to another. These pieces move through openness, guardedness, woundedness, steadiness, and imprint, tracing how different animals carry their histories in their bodies and how those histories shape the people who love them. Some arrived easy and stayed easy. Others required patience, structure, or vigilance.

Large, fierce, and spectacular, American dinosaurs dominated the popular imagination, making front-page headlines and appearing in feature films.

Some 73,000 years ago, the Mount Toba supervolcano in toda's Indonesia erupted, releasing the energy of a million tons of explosives.
