Tips on Global Warming

global warming book by Laurie David and Cambria Gordon This looks/sounds like fun.

I heard about it on NPR (audio about it here). I suspect that it will be useful and informative not just for kids, but for us older ones as well. It is by Laurie David and Cambria Gordon. I’ve not read it, but from what I gather from the interview, it is certainly worth a look if you’re in the market for accessible information that someone you know (or a whole household) might like to have.

From the NPR site:

Producers of Al Gore’s documentary An Inconvenient Truth have written a book for children: The Down-to-Earth Guide to Global Warming. It features kid-friendly science explaining the warming of the earth and tips for kids who want to do something about it.

I especially love the “tips for kids who want to do something about it” part. Excellent.

Might make a great gift.

Enjoy.

    Hi,

    How about this: The Union of Concerned Scientists has a lovely set of FAQs about global warming. Here’s the site:

    I wish that you would be able to actually describe global warming to kids (on this website), because my little brother wants to know what it is, and I have a headache, so I cannot explain it correctly to him!
