From the Back Cover
This is the Earth that we treat with respect,
where people and animals interconnect,
where we learn to find balance
between give and take
and help heal the planet
with choices we make.
This Is the Earth takes readers on a journey through hundreds of years as it explores how humans have affected the environment and shows the ways in which we can all care for the planet. Every action we take has an impact on our surroundings—and everyone can help save the world.
