Behind the scenes

 * Salient green is a reference to the 1973 science fiction film Soylent Green. In the film, soylent green was an artificially processed food depicted as small green wafers or cubes. The name suggested it contained or was made from soy and/or green algae, but in reality it was made from recycled dead human beings, due to global ecosystem collapse.
