Recensione
The purpose of the 'Environment Challenge' series is to set out thought-provoking questions and then attempt to answer them. The reader is challenged to ask 'What would I do and how could I help to alleviate the situations and problems?'. Case studies, ideas for further research and advice on how to think critically and objectively about complex problems are presented. This is one of six books in the series. It is excellent, well set out and accessible to children so that they can become more aware of how we are all involved in the environmental dilemmas of the 21st century. This is an ideal book for the upper classes of a primary school. --Anthony Hamilton Jones, School Librarian Magazine Spring 2012
