Ancient Deforestation

The symbol on the national flag of Lebanon is the cedar tree. The problem is, there aren’t many cedar trees in Lebanon anymore. In the ancient world, wood was used as a building material and a source of fuel, and there weren’t many alternatives.  As civilizations and empires grew, they had an insatiable demand for wood and agricultural land, which led to the systematic destruction of ancient forests.

Stalingrad: The Bloodiest Battle in History (Encore)

From August 1942 to February 1943, the Germans and the Soviets engaged in what would become the most brutal and bloodiest battle in human history. The battle took place in a city that probably had greater psychological and propaganda value than it did actual strategic value. The battle, in many respects, was the high-water mark of Nazi Germany and the turning point of the entire war in Europe. Learn more about the Battle of Stalingrad and how it changed the entire course of the Second World War on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

All About ePaper

For centuries, the printed page was one of the most efficient ways to preserve and share information.  In the digital age, engineers sought to reproduce the best qualities of paper without sacrificing many of the benefits of a screen. The result was a technology that uses remarkably little power, remains readable in bright sunlight, and can hold an image even when the electricity is turned off.

The History of Batman

In 1939, Detective Comics introduced a new superhero. He was just a man with no superpowers. He only had the mind of a detective and a whole lot of money.  He is a silent guardian, watching over the people of Gotham City. Protecting the good and punishing the evil.  He isn’t the comic book hero we deserve, but he is the one we need.  Learn more about the history of Batman on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
