　　Why Buy Shade-Gron Coffee?

　　When people argue about hether coffee is good for health, they're usually thinking of the health of the coffee drinker. Is it food for your heart? Does it increase blood pressure? Does it help you concentrate? Hoever, coffee affects the health of the human population in other ays, too.

　　Traditionally, coffee bushes ere planted under the canopyof taller indigenoustrees. Hoever, more and more farmers in Latin America are deforesting the land to gro full-sun coffees. At first, this increases production because more coffee bushes can be planted if there aren’t any trees. With increased production come increased profits.

　　Unfortunately, deforesting for coffee production immediately decreases local-ildlife habitat. Native birds nest and hide from predatorsin the tall trees and migrating birds rest there.

　　Furthermore, in the long term, the full-sun method also damages the ecosystem because more chemical fertilizers and pesticides are needed to gro the coffee. The fertilizers and pesticides kill insects that eat coffee plant, but then the birds eat the poisoned insects and also die. The chemicals kill or sicken other animals as ell, and can even enter the ater that people ill eventually drink.

　　Fortunately, farmers in Central and South America are beginning to gro more coffee bushes in the shade. We can support these farmers by buying coffee ith such labels as shade gron and bird friendly. Sure, these varieties might cost a little more. But e're paying for the health of the birds, the land, ourselves, and the planet. I think it's orth it.

　　Washoe Learned American Sign Language

　　An animal that influenced scientific thought has died.A chimpanzee named Washoe and born in Africa died of natural causes late last month at the age of 42 at a research center in the American state of Washington.Washoe had become knon in the scientific community and around the orld for her ability to use American Sign Language.She as said to be the first non-human to learn a human language.Her skills also led to debate about primates and their ability to understand language.

　　Research scientists Allen and Beatrix Gardner began teaching Washoe sign language in 1966.In 1969,the Gardners described Washoe's progress in a scientific report.The people ho experimented ith Washoe said she gre to understand about 250 ords.For example,Washoe made signs to communicate hen it as time to eat.She could request foods like apples and bananas.She also asked questions like,Who is coming to play? Once the nes about Washoe spread,many language scientists began studies of their on into this ne and exciting area of research.The hole direction of primate research changed.

　　Hoever,critics argued Washoe only learned to repeat sign language movements from atching her teachers.They said she had never developed true language skills.Even no,there are some researchers ho suggest that primates learn sign language only by memory,and perform the signs only for prizes.Yet Washoe's keepers disagree.Roger Fouts is a former student of the Gardners.He took Washoe to a research center in Ellensburg,Washington.There,Washoe taught sign language to three younger chimpanzees,hich are still alive.

　　Scientists like private researcher Jane Goodall believe Washoer provided ne information about the mental orkings of chimpanzees.Today,there are not as many scientists studying language skills ith chimps.Part of the reason is that this kind of research takes a very long time.

　　Debate continues about chimps understanding of human communication.Yet,one thing is sure-Washoe changed popular ideas about the possibilities of animal intelligence.
