A powerful look at the biggest environmental issues facing our generation

Earth's growing population is putting an unprecedented strain on our rich natural resources, from water and wood, to fossil fuels and wildlife. Can we reduce and manage our demand before it becomes too late?

Our Earth is facing huge environmental challenges, from plastic pollution choking our oceans to critical loss of biodiversity. Ecographics aims to raise young readers' awareness of these challenges with the latest headline-grabbing facts and stats, pertinent case studies and powerful photos.
