A look at some of the biggest environmental crises in the world today
A powerful look at the biggest environmental issues facing our generation

Pollution is fast invading every part of Earth, from the deepest ocean to the most remote desert to the very air we breathe. It harms and can even kill people, animals and plant life and is a major factor in climate change. Worse still, almost all pollution is caused by humans. Can we reverse the damage caused by pollution before it's 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. Aimed at readers aged 9 and up.
