The Earth's Resources

47 pp. | Chelsea Clubhouse | August, 2006 | Library ISBN 0-7910-8863-4 $27.00
(4) 4-6 Science in Focus series. Double-page spreads illustrated with vibrant photographs and some diagrams and sidebars give brief overviews of each natural resource--water, air, soil, plants, solar and geothermal power, and more. Broad treatment of the subject matter leads to (unanswered) questions of sustainability and responsible use. Although light on science, this is a good introduction to the social impact of waste versus conservation. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind.
