What's the Point of Being Green
ISBN: 9780764144271
Publication Date: 1 April 2010

Written especially for young adult readers, this heavily illustrated book talks about the threat to our planet's environment and outlines steps that governments, organizations, and ordinary citizens--including this book's young readers--can take to help keep the planet green.

Author Jaqui Bailey points out the major problems, which include:

  • Climate change: The Earth's temperature is rising, which could soon have a disastrous effect every living being
  • Pollution and acid rain: Earth's air, water, and soil are being damaged because we depend too heavily on fossil fuels, and because we overfish the oceans and destroy the forests
  • Fortunately, we can all take steps to start solving the problem. This book focuses mainly on things young readers can do, which include:
  • Conserve electricity in the home by turning off lights and appliances that aren't being used.
  • Walk, bike, or use public transportation instead of depending entirely on the family car
  • Stop using plastic bags
  • Conserve water . . . and more

The issues are presented in brief, illustrated copy blocks that kids will find both entertaining and easy to read. They include fact panels, true/false panels, case histories, and action panels. Colour photos and cartoon-style illustrations on every page.
