Issues Today: Sustainability and Environment

Our everyday lives have a huge impact on the world around us. The ways in which our actions affect the environment are much debated, and there is growing concern over the amount of natural resources we consume. Sustainability and Environment explores global- and UK-centred topics including sustainability, climate change, waste management and the world’s growing population.

The information comes from a variety of sources, including government reports and statistics, newspapers and magazine articles, surveys and polls, academic research and literature from charities and lobby groups; articles have been tailored to an 11 to 14 age group. Additionally, at the end of each chapter are two pages of activities relating to the articles and issues raised in that chapter.
