Tabular vertical aligning one column next to a column with images

Question

None of my efforts to vertically center the second column are working.

First trying the tabular environment:

\documentclass[]{book}
\usepackage[paperheight=3.0in,paperwidth=4.0in,margin=0.65in,
             heightrounded,showframe]{geometry}
\usepackage{tabularx, array}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\def\myBioLoss{Biodiversity_Loss_CutTree.png} 
\def\myPollution{Pollute_Smokestack.png}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
    \begin{tabular}{l m{2cm}}
        \multicolumn{2}{l}{Ecological Ceiling}  \
        \includegraphics[width=.10\textwidth]{\myBioLoss} & Biodiversity    \
        \includegraphics[width=.10\textwidth]{\myPollution} & Pollution     \
    \end{tabular} 
\end{center}
\end{document}

But I get

I've tried adjustbox from: Centering a column vertically with longtable and pictures in rows which compiled but did not center.

I've tried tabularx and \def\tabularxcolumn#1{m{#1}} from Vertically center text in tabularx table, which compiled with the environment: \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{l m{2cm}} but did not center.

I've tried tabular* from Right-centered columns in tabular*, but this also compiled but did not center.

Lastly, this is for beamer: Problem with centering Images in a column (beamer) which does not help me.

Yes, I need the book class.

Answer 1

One way is to use of the adjusbox packages which enable moving images baselines position, adding margins etc. For inserting image it offer \adjustimage which can replace includegraphics:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage[paperheight=3.0in,paperwidth=4.0in,margin=0.65in,
            heightrounded,showframe]{geometry}
\usepackage{array, multirow, tabularx} 
\usepackage[export]{adjustbox}          % it also load graphicx package
\def\myBioLoss{Biodiversity_Loss_CutTree.png}
\def\myPollution{Pollute_Smokestack.png}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
    \adjustboxset{width=.1\textwidth,valign=c, margin=0pt 3pt 0pt 3pt}
    \begin{tabular}{l m{2cm}}
        \multicolumn{2}{l}{Ecological Ceiling}  \
        \adjustimage{}{example-image-duck}%{\myBioLoss} 
            & Biodiversity    \
        \adjustimage{}{example-image-duck}%{\myPollution} 
            & Pollution     \
    \end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{document}
