This new series provides a balanced, largely science-oriented overview of issues affecting the environment. Books that examine problems (such as global warming) explain the source of those problems, the threats they pose, and possible solutions. Books that examine solutions (such as recycling) explain what those solutions are, how they work, and what effect they're having. Indexes, glossaries, and full-color photographs enhance all volumes in this series.
