Xeko Mission: China (Starter Set)by XekoFor the one of us who has kids over here at Ambitious Green, my kids absolutely love this game (and for the other one of us that doesn't have kids, I freely admit that it's pretty fun!).
Xeko Mission: China is the newest edition of Xeko, the award-winning trading card game that introduces kids to the world's threatened animal species and conservation hot spots.
In this edition, learn about China's ecosystems and meet the endangered species that live in them. This mission includes animals like the beloved Giant Panda, critically endangered Snow Leopard, and ferocious King Cobra. The Xeko Mission: China starter set is packaged in a stunning pagoda box decorated with animals from China's habitats and dragon illustrations that capture the mysteries of ancient Chinese culture.
This game will inspire the next generation of eco-leaders through enriching and exciting game play. All Xeko collections are playable with one another, and players mix and match to build custom decks ("also check out our Xeko Mission: Indonesia, which comes in a really cool-looking coffee crate box":http://www.ambitiousgreen.com/collections/toys/products/xeko-mission-indonesia-starter-set). This starter set includes 42 cards, an oversized game mat, rule book, play guides and a heavy-duty deck storage box. Ages 8 and up.

Polylactic acid or polylactide (PLA) is a biodegradable, thermoplastic, aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the U.S.) or sugarcanes (globally).
Recycling is the reprocessing of old materials into new products, with the aims of preventing the waste of potentially useful materials, reducing the consumption of fresh raw materials, reducing energy usage, reducing air (from incineration) and water (from landfilling) pollution by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.
Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a reduced impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in organic production.
