The dangers of pollution cannot be ignored. Most of us know what it's like to breathe in fresh air, but what if our air was filled with contaminants? Air pollution is just one type of pollution readers learn about as they explore this essential ecological topic. Other forms of pollution include noise, heat, and light. Through main text that supports current science curricula, readers are informed about the different kinds of pollution, how pollution and climate change are linked, and how young people can reduce pollution in their daily lives. The text is supplemented with vibrant, full-color photographs.
