The Earth report

School Library Journal

YA-- An excellent sourcebook on global ecological issues: nuclear energy; polution of food, air, and water; the politics and costs in restoring the earth's ecological balance; and the complex fragile ecology to wholeness. The statistics, charts, and applications to everyday life provide both enrichment and organized information. This book gives the needed information in a precise and readable but unemotional way. It contains essays that are of tremendous help for ecological study units. Students will find it a source of motivational quotes and an efficient presentation of demographics, important information, and key ecological issues so strategic to mankind's existence. A valuable databank on the battle for global survival.-- Lavelle Osborne, Port Arthur Schools, Tex.
