Synopsis
Everything you wanted to know about climate change but were too afraid to ask!
"Along with getting its message across in a visually stimulating way, this offers younger eco-activists a first-rate toolbox of facts and basic background on which to build. Compact, informative, and convincing.''-- Kirkus Starred Review
"Through boldly designed climate change infographics, Gibson supplies a comprehensive presentation of a planet on the brink." -- Publishers Weekly
The terrifying effects of a warming planet are impossible to ignore, but sometimes it's hard to pick through the facts and to understand exactly what’s happening and how. This book of bright, bold infographics illuminates the realities of climate change in hard numbers, digestible data, and vivid visualizations.
How will rising sea levels affect us?
What is the impact of meat on the planet?
What industries create the most emissions?
How do renewable energies compare to one another?
What are the most effective things we as individuals can do to help the planet?
Without sugar-coating or fear-mongering, this is a book that conveniently unpacks inconvenient truths in a way that is accessible to readers young and old.
