The earth gives us many things: air, water, shelter, food and energy. We cannot live without these, but we have to use them carefully, to make sure they last, and that we do not harm the world around us.
Settlements are places where people live in groups. The groups can be small, as in villages, or very big, as in cities.
'Earth Alert!: Settlements' tells you about:
- What people live in, from tents to huge blocks of flats
- How most people in the world live in towns and cities
- Where children play and adults relax
- How food and water get from the country to the people who need it.
Learning about settlements is made easier by the many colour pictures, facts, examples and activities in this book.
