A hot topic indeed! A recent report from the Pentagon concluded that climate change poses a greater threat to world security than terrorism. This series focuses on the combined pressures of population growth and dwindling resources on our planet. Through geographical up-to-date facts and figures, each book covers one key global issue and combines physical and human geography to give readers a complete answer to difficult questions. It is ideal for current affairs topic work, and explains how the global issues affect the life of the reader and includes tips on how they can make a difference in their own community. It compares the lives of two people with similar occupations, one in a developed country, the other in a developing country.
