Meet the young activists who are using their voices and
minds to fight climate change.
Did you know that the past five years have been the
hottest ever recorded? Or that over seven million people participated in the
global Climate Strike? We're facing a very real problem, but there's hope.
Everyone is affected by climate change. Reading Climate
Action: What Happened and What We Can Do is the perfect introduction
not only to the dramatic effects of climate change, but to the solutions. Learn
how our behavior and actions have led us to this point, hear from kids around
the world dealing with extreme storms, wildfires, and sea level rise, and discover
what scientists, youth activists, and ordinary citizens are doing to protect
their communities.
Divided into eight sections for easy browsing and with over
fifty photographs, captions, charts, and graphs, this nonfiction book is an
excellent choice to share in the classroom and for homeschooling for kids ages 6 and up.
Also includes a glossary to supplement the text, author's
note, and index.
