Issues: Renewable Energy

Renewable energy sources generate about a third of the UK electricity. We are all aware that we need to help the environment, and by using renewable energy is one way we can help. But just how do we decide which is the right one for us? How can we benefit from renewable energy? This book discusses the ways in which we can use energy to help the environment.

The information inside comes from a variety of sources, including newspapers, magazines, government reports and charity groups; providing different perspectives on challenging topics. At the end of the book is a selection of activities that will encourage interaction, literacy, critical thinking and independent research. Content is accessible and engaging, tailored primarily towards the 14 to 18 age group.
