The Young Person's Guide to Protecting the Planet.
What is going to happen to planet Earth? This challenging new series draws attention to the most pressing environmental concerns - and suggests positive ways to prevent further damage.
'Earth Watch' explains the issues - from the perils of pollution and global warming to ozone depletion and habitat destruction - and then suggests ways to help. Hands-on experiments show readers how to explore the science behind the facts, while action globes suggest ways to make a difference on a daily basis.
To highlight what is already being done, eyewitness reports from professionals - including a glaciologist in Antarctica and a garbologist in New York - describe how their work is improving the management of the planet.
