DOWN
The purified new undercoating of waterfowl (duck, goose or swan) consisting of the light, fluffy filaments but without any quill shaft. Owing to the natural difficulties of complete separation, a manufacturer's tolerance of not more than 25 per cent by weight of small, light, fluffy feathers is allowed. Note. - It is permissible to use the term " down quilt " as a generic description for the type of quilt which is known by that name, since this usage is well understood by the public. Where, however, any individual quilt described under this general heading is not filled with down, as defined, the description of such quilt must be qualified by the name of the actual material content. Natural Feathers: - (a) Poultry Feathers - The purified new feather plumage of fowls, other than water fowl. (b) Duck Feathers - The purified new feather plumage of ducks. (c) Goose Feathers - Any of the purified new feather plumage of geese. Milled Feathers - Any of the purified new feathers as described above which have been crushed, chopped, stripped or ground.

tropical rain forest
The most valuable and the richest ecosystem on Earth. It plays a critical part in the Earth's life support systems and house 50%, and possibly as much as 90%, of all the species on Earth. It is a key storehouse of foods, oils and minerals, and a source of ingredients that make up a range of medical treatments. It also represents home and livelihood for many people. However, more than half of the rainforests have disappeared, chopped down for valuable tropical hardwoods, or cleared to provide areas for cattle grazing or human habitation. The forests play an important part in climate patterns, and deforestation is thought to be responsible for 18% of global warming. Furthermore, as they disappear there is also an albedo effect - a damaging increase in the sunlight reflected - which affects wind and rainfall patterns. (Source: WRIGHT)
