Nearly all living things depend on Earth's land and its resources to survive. But did you know that people do many things that hurt the land? The damage sometimes destroys forests, which are home to diverse ecosystems and are important in producing oxygen and water. And in many parts of the world, damaged land produces less food, less wood, and less of many things that people need. We must join together in the quest to find better ways to use and take care of Earth's land. With engaging text and eye-catching images—plus a special Going Green section—this book tells you all about Earth's land and what you can do to protect it.

      Gr 5-8-Each volume provides a thorough, interesting discussion of multiple aspects of its topic, including historical origins, the current situation, and potential solutions. Maps, charts, and diagrams help readers visualize subjects such as the carbon cycle and the structure of sanitary landfills. Photos from around the world accompany discussions of problems and strategies for dealing with them in many countries, from air pollution in India to wave farms off the coast of Portugal. While stressing the need for immediate action to reduce threats such as global warming, the books provide a list of ways to go green as well as instructions for contacting government leaders to express concern about environmental issues. Solid choices to replace outdated books and/or to fill in gaps.
