environmentalism

". . . an energetic (and sometimes extreme!) guide to creating a sustainable world. [The author] guides young readers through some of the trickiest topics of our time: food and water waste, our dependency on fossil fuels, and our love of money and stuff. What our planet needs, he argues, is for us to embrace sustainable living.

No one is too young, he argues, and no action too small."--Provided by publisher.
