What Is Climate Change?

What Is Climate Change? examines one of the most urgent issues of our time from all angles — the scientific evidence for rising global temperatures, the role of greenhouse gases and human activity, the effects of climate change on polar bears, droughts, rising sea levels, and extreme weather, and the ongoing political debate about causes and solutions — presenting all sides of the conversation in a fact-based, fair-minded, and age-appropriate way. Part of the #1 New York Times bestselling What Was? series, this accessible chapter book includes black-and-white illustrations and a 16-page photo insert. It is an excellent choice for students because it equips them with the vocabulary, evidence, and understanding to engage thoughtfully with one of the defining environmental issues of their generation.
