Scientists recently discovered bats, like Tuvan throat singers and death-metal vocalists, produce sound using ventricular folds instead of vocal cords. A Danish biologist found bats use these for low-frequency calls. With their ability to also make extremely high-pitched calls, bats possess an unparalleled vocal range. The Center for Biological Diversity argues this makes them more akin to grindcore vocalists, who utilize both very low and very high frequencies.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a 501c3 nonprofit, works to secure a future for all species through science, law, and creative media. Check out our video to hear biodiversity-loving grindcore artists and see brutally cute bats. Learn more at biologicaldiversity.org or email us at center@biologicaldiversity.org.

This excerpt is from a panel presentation at the Business In The Community Ireland Summit on Corporate Responsibility, held in November 2010.

The panel featured experts including James Quincey (The Coca-Cola Company), Sir Stuart Rose (Marks & Spencer), and Gerard O'Neill of Amarach Research.

O'Neill highlighted how marketers' 'pricing trap' hinders sustainability initiatives. He argued that while price accounts for only 30% of a purchase decision, emotion and feelings drive 70%. Emphasizing trust and the social environment is crucial for consumers to move beyond price-driven choices.

Nature offers elegant solutions to countless design challenges, from advanced adhesives and biodegradable packaging to incredibly strong materials and the mechanics of flight. The study and application of these natural innovations is known as biomimicry.

Join us to hear from two experts in this field. Richard MacCowan of Biomimicry UK will discuss its role in adopting Industry 4.0 technology, while Veronika Kapsali from University of Arts London will share insights on biomimicry in her textiles work.

Richard J. Nevle and Steven Nightingale's *The Paradise Notebooks* journeys through the spectacular Sierra Nevada. Blending incandescent poetry and fascinating facts, the book explores the range's natural history and mystical wonder, from granite to rare butterflies. The authors portray the Sierra Nevada as both earthly and transcendental, emphasizing nature's profound spiritual and physical importance.

Join Richard, Steven, and Tom Fleischner for a webinar on the book and the Sierra Nevada's beauty. Amidst environmental degradation, they advocate for "whole-minded, loving attention to place" as a path to rekindle our connection with the living world. This event is part of the Natural History Institute’s "Stories of Nature and Culture" series, exploring diverse human-nature intersections.
