The environment / Heather Pidcock-Reed.

Summary:

"More than 7 billion people live on Earth today, so making sure that the planet remains habitable and hospitable for our species is of vital importance. Yet, many scientists are concerned that human activity--from water and air pollution to the emission of greenhouse gases that affect the climate--threatens the stability of the environment. This book examines differing viewpoints on how to best protect our environment and utilize the earth's natural resources." -- Back cover.
