The Second Green Revolution
This is blog cronicalizes and analyzes current news and opinion articles. It builds upon my research on the FIRST GREEN REVOLUTION, which was developed in Mexico beginning in the 1940s by Nobel Peace Laureate Dr. Norman E. Borlaug. In this blog, I examine the rise since the 1990s of the SECOND GREEN REVOLUTION expanded to implement new changes in agriculture including the use of less harmful fertilizers and pesticides, as well as environmental sustainability, biodiversity, biofuels, food security, the Gene Revolution, and the debate between organic vs. agricultural bioechnology.
The Self-Absorbing Man
Paolo Rivera, a Marvel-exclusive artist, has been working professionally since 2002. Although he began his career painting in oil, he has since moved on to penciling, inking, and coloring (with some occasional sculpting). Rivera was born and raised in Daytona Beach, FL, and graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2003, where he studied under David Mazzucchelli. He broke into the comics industry thanks to writer Jim Krueger, whom he met at Megacon in Orlando, FL (while still in high school).
Rivera's best known work is Mythos, a series of six richly-painted origin stories written by Paul Jenkins. Originally published as one-shots, it was collected into a hardcover edition in 2008. He now limits his painted work to covers including The Twelve, The Iliad, The Amazing Spider-Man, and the Wolverine Art Appreciation Month series. He spends the remainder of his time on Daredevil, on which he is currently hard at work. You can see his art and take an in-depth look at his creative process at The Self-Absorbing Man, a blog that he updates regularly.
