Climate Action: What Happened and What We Can Do

(3) K-3 In this information-rich overview of climate change, Simon clarifies terms (e.g. global warming, greenhouse gases); discusses the effects of rising temperatures on crops, wildlife, forests, and communities; examines recent devastating weather events; and covers alternative energy sources. Throughout the well-organized book, Simon profiles some of the kid activists demanding action from governments around the world and provides action steps that readers can take themselves. Lots of well-chosen photos support the clear-eyed text. Reading list, glossary of terms, and index are appended.
