(3) YA Planet under Pressure series. Each of these titles presents a reasonably comprehensive overview of the competing environmental and economic pressures humans have exerted on our planet. The dire scenarios of dwindling water supplies, burgeoning population, and careless or inadvertent slaughter of animal species are daunting. The questions raised far outweigh the solutions proposed, but students will get a decent introduction to these issues. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Planet under Pressure titles: Animals under Threat, Water, and Climate Change.
