To make whale meal on an industrial scale, whale meat was heated under steam pressure to release the oil, which was the primary product of the industry, and during the process the tissues were broken down into a slurry. After the oil has been centrifuged off, the solid material that remained was dried, ground and sold as whale meal.  2, record 1, English, - whale%20meal

Huile de jojoba : Huile de première pression à froid, extraite des fruits du Simmondsia chinensis, arbuste des régions désertiques du Mexique et de l'Arizona. Riche en insaponifiables, elle est utilisée par les Indiens de ces régions comme protection antidéshydratante et antiride. Calmante et assouplissante, cette "cire végétale" est remarquablement compatible avec l'épiderme car elle a la propriété, unique dans le monde végétal, d'avoir des caractéristiques proches de celles du sébum humain. En cosmétique elle remplace avantageusement l'huile de blanc de baleine et elle excelle dans le soin des cheveux secs.

La jojoba es un producto natural que se extrae de las semillas de la planta que lleva su nombre y que es un arbusto originario del desierto de Sonora, al norte de Mexico. Durante cientos de años, fue reconocida y utilizada por los Aztecas antes del descubrimiento de América, quienes le atribuyeron propiedades mágicas. Recientes investigaciones confirman que las leyendas Aztecas, son superadas con creces por las propiedades reales de éste aceite (o más correctamente, cera líquida), de composición química similar a las ceramidas de nuestra piel. Efectivamente, el aceite de Jojoba, es más bien una especie de cera que a temperatura ambiente es líquida, presentándose con aspecto grasosa a diferencia de otros aceites de presión en frío.  1, record 4, Spanish, - aceite%20de%20jojoba

Ecophobia--a fear of ecological problems and the natural world--is a fear of oil spills, rainforest destruction, whale hunting, acid rain, the ozone hole, and Lyme disease [and sometimes the fear of just being outside].  4, record 6, English, - ecophobia

This summer’s record-busting hot spell ... has aroused an extraordinary response. ... Many Americans have found themselves concerned ... about the whole bruised and abused human habitat. Soggy, unremitting heat sometimes seemed a symptom of general ecological collapse. ... Ecophobia, as the mood might be called, has not been induced by the hot spell alone .... The combination of heat and pollution gave a "sense of foreboding" ... [and provoked] apprehensions about ecological dangers .... Ecophobia ... is not likely to disappear ... [because] there is sufficient cause for fear about almost every aspect of the human environment.  5, record 6, English, - ecophobia

Briefly, "ecophobia" is an irrational (often hysterical) and groundless hatred of the natural world, or aspects of it. Such fear of the agency of Nature plays out in many spheres. The personal hygiene industry relies on it, since capital-driven notions about personal cleanliness assign us preference for perfumes (for some more than others) over natural bodily odors; the cosmetic industry (in its passion for covering up Nature’s "flaws" and "blemishes") uses it; beauticians and barbers (in their military passion for cutting back natural growths) are sustained by it; city sanitation boards display it in their demands that residents keep grass short to prevent the introduction of "vermin" and "pests" into urban areas; landscaped gardens, trimmed poodles in women’s handbags on the Seoul subway system -- anything that amputates or seeks to amputate the agency of Nature and to assert a human order on a system that follows different orders is, in essence, ecophobic. Ecophobia is a subtle thing that takes many forms.  6, record 6, English, - ecophobia

écophobie : Le mot «phobie» englobe la crainte maladive, la répugnance, la peur, le dégoût, l'horreur (p. ex. : «zoophobie», peur morbide de certains animaux). Il faut que le premier élément du terme représente l'objet de cette crainte ou de cette répugnance. «Éco» est ambigu : il peut vouloir dire «écologie» (habitat, environnement) ou «économie». Par exemple, nous avons relevé le terme «écophobie» dans le sens de la haine de l'écologie ou des préoccupations environnementales (aussi «écolophobie»), de la peur d'être chez soi (aussi «domophobie»), de l'aversion pour les questions touchant l'économie (aussi «éconophobie»), mais non dans le sens de la peur des milieux naturels qui fait l'objet de la présente fiche. Les termes anglais «ecophobia» et français «écophobie» semblent être souvent de faux-amis.  3, record 6, French, - naturophobie

"Cold-adapted enzymes have many potential applications, including use by the detergent industry, a $100 million market, where enzymes are in demand for cold water wash applications, "said Bruggeman. "Our research focuses on customizing the enzymes we discovered in our Phase 1 research, as well as identifying additional esterase and lipase genes which can be developed and optimized further for multiple uses. "The Phase II award will fund research in extreme cold, deep-sea environments where unique microbes have been found to dwell in the carcasses of whale skeletons. These skeletons ooze oil for up to 20 years and are encrusted with a dense microbial flora that derives energy and nutrition from the lipids found in the decaying whale. The microbes are, therefore, a source of rare cold-adapted enzymes. In Phase 1 research, Diversa scientists found that these enzymes have the capability to efficiently degrade fats and oils under laboratory conditions of extreme cold, such as in cold water wash conditions.  1, record 9, English, - cold%2Dadapted%20enzyme
