Acerca de los autores: Ellie Whitney grew up in New York City and received her B.A. and Ph.D. degrees in English and biology at Harvard and Washington Universities. She taught at both Florida State University and Florida A&M University, wrote numerous newspaper columns on environmental matters for the Tallahassee Democrat and co-authored almost a dozen college textbooks on nutrition, health and related topics, many of which repeatedly reappear in new editions. She spent three decades exploring outdoor Florida and studying its ecology, then co-wrote "Priceless Florida: Natural Ecosystems and Native Species." In her retirement, more concerned about climate change than any other issue, she volunteered full-time for the nonpartisan national nonprofit Citizens Climate Lobby.
