How We Know What We Know About
Our Changing Climate: Scientists and
Kids Explore Global Warming (About
Our Changing Climate) by Gary
Braasch
This Book Is An Aaas Top Pick For 2008
When the weather changes daily, how do we really know that Earths
climate is changing? Here is the science behind the headlines - evidence
from flowers, butterflies, birds, frogs, trees, glaciers and much more,
gathered by scientists from all over the world, sometimes with assistance
from young citizen-scientists. And here is what young people, and their
families and teachers, can do to learn about climate change and take
action. Climate change is a critical and timely topic of deep concern, here
told in an age-appropriate manner, with clarity and hope. Kids can make a
difference! This book combines the talents of two uniquely qualified
authors: Lynne Cherry, the leading childrens environmental
writer/illustrator and author of The Great Kapok Tree, and Gary Braasch,
award-winning photojournalist and author of Earth Under Fire: How Global
Warming is Changing the World.

Personal Review: How We Know What We Know About Our
Changing Climate: Scientists and Kids Explore Global Warming
(About Our Changing Climate) by Gary Braasch
One of the worst things about reading global warming books is that feeling
of helplessness that sets in as statistic is added to statistic. Now, at last,
Lynne Cherry has produced a well illustrated text that tells us how we can
help by observing and documenting changes in the world around us. There
are no grand claims, no easy solutions, but the hope that as we know more
about what is happening, the better we will know what to do. At the back of
the book, Cherry lists where we can submit our observations. As one who
works in community service, I am impressed at how this book takes
education into the real world. I have given it to our 5th grade faculty for
service learning.
How We Know What We Know About Our Changing Climate is highly
recommended.
