Summary:
This graphic nonfiction work follows four teenagers involved in organizing a major climate protest in New York City, using their experiences as a framework to explain the causes and consequences of climate change. Through a blend of narrative, journalism, and illustration, the book introduces scientific concepts related to global warming, extreme weather, biodiversity loss, and environmental impacts, while also presenting potential solutions and avenues for civic engagement. The book combines personal stories with accessible explanations intended to help young readers understand climate issues and the role individuals can play in addressing them.
"As climate change quickens--bringing with it extreme weather, biodiversity loss, and humanitarian crises--four teens help organize the world's largest climate protest. Hundreds of thousands join them, taking to the streets of New York City and demanding answers. How did climate change get this bad? Who's to blame? And most importantly: What can we do about it? In their stunning graphic novel, New York Times best-selling illustrator Danica Novgorodoff and award-winning environmental journalist Meera Subramanian share experiences from their lives and those of the four youth activists. Through their stories, we learn the science behind our changing planet and explore solutions at hand. They show us that anyone can make meaningful change, because a better world is possible--and together, we can create it!"--Amazon.
