Rain Forests: A Pro/Con Issue

(4) YA Hot Pro/Con Issues series. Illustrated with color photos and drawings, the choppy text describes what a rainforest is, then discusses the battles over clearing the land for logging, mining, and cattle ranching. The final chapter offers arguments on both sides, although the book generally sides with those trying to preserve this fast-shrinking habitat. Bib., ind.
