This series aims to take a positive look at the world's major environmental problems and explains the threats facing the planet and the international efforts being taken to preserve it. The series is based on an earlier one entitled "Conserving Our World". Each book has been shortened and simplified with the intention of appealing to primary school children and meeting the special needs of secondary school children with reading difficulties. The texts have been checked by a language consultant. This book focuses on waste, where it comes from and the problems linked with its disposal. It stresses how, with better planning and organization, much waste could be turned into new resources for the future.
