Scottish campaigners are calling for a memorial to a
bear which joined Polish troops on the front line during World War II
and later died in Edinburgh, media reported.
Voytek, a 113-kilogram, 1.8-metre brown bear, was adopted by the Poles after they found it in Iran in 1943.
They gave the animal beer and cigarettes, trained it to carry mortar
shells and even enlisted it as a soldier so that it could keep
travelling with them.

A
new report this week says greenhouse gas emissions could double in the next 30
years.
Not
from buses and cars, but from ethanol made out of corn.
Scientists
said turning forests into fields to grow fuel creates way more carbon dioxide
than it saves, but with shrinking oil reserves and rising gas prices the search
for a cleaner, greener fuel for transportation is critical.
However,
the biofuel most likely to replace petroleum comes from the most unlikely
place.
