(4) YA Our Fragile Planet series. Although their titles and initial chapters focus on traditional earth science content, each lengthy, textbooklike volume turns to the negative impact humans have on the earth's air, water, and land, detailing climate change and the effects of pollution and overuse. Some hope for the future is presented in each final chapter. Color illustrations and photographs are few and far between. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Our Fragile Planet titles: Atmosphere, Climate, Geosphere, Hydrosphere, and Oceans.
