A series of non-fiction books for reluctant readers that reflect the current concerns over environment and ecological issues. This title explains simply the science behind what can be a very confusing subject. With an emphasis on the practical ways readers can help, such as simple recycling solutions and saving energy, it works as both a non-fiction reader and a reference resource. Inside this book: what sustainable living means; how new designs are making houses more energy efficient; why buying locally grown food is better for the planet and how recycling helps to save energy as well as money.
