An introduction to the world's changing habitats and the growing number of threats to wildlife, with positive suggestions to enable readers to make a difference, and project ideas to help them engage with the topic.

Featuring habitats across the world, such as the rainforests, coral reefs, mountains and polar places, the book explores how they are changing and the ways in which this is endangering wildlife.
The environment and our impact on it is a hugely topical subject, especially among young people, who are participating in protests and action around the world.
