What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to your other cards here.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 10 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.
The site, in 2007
An environmental blog by the science writer Andrew Revkin for The New York Times, which ran from 2007 to 2016.
It looked at how human affairs could be balanced with the planet's limits, with videos, interviews and posts on climate change, energy policy, conservation, biodiversity and sustainability.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
