The Young Person's Guide to Protecting the Planet.
What is going to happen to planet Earth and the future food and farming? This challenging new book draws attention to the most pressing concerns - and suggests positive ways to produce enough food while protecting the environment.
'Food Watch' explains the issues - from the problems of world hunger to the effect of chemical pest controls and the debate surrounding genetically modified foods. Hands-on experiments show readers how to explore the science behind the facts, while action globes suggest ways to make a difference on a daily basis.
To highlight what is already being done, eyewitness reports from professionals, including an organic dairy farmer in New Zealand and a nutritionist in Ethiopia, describe how their work is improving the management of the planet.
