Summary:
"Every person has a right to live on our planet, a right to call somewhere on this Earth their home. Across the globe climate change is threatening that right, but we can still save this wonderful planet that is our home. Meet the incredible eighteen young activists who are already taking action against climate change, as they see its effects already changing the environments in which they live travel to a huge range of locations, explore different and often endangered habitats, experience new cultures and traditions and find out how you can join the fight. This beautifully told global collection of real-life stories includes a toolkit for young nature-lovers, with simple, empowering activities that we can all do from home to help protect our environment."
