Pollution

Targeted at middle-grade readers, this nonfiction guide explains how pollution arises, spreads, and impacts the environment and human health. It presents real-world examples that show contaminants moving through air, water, and soil, and describes the actions communities and governments take to combat these threats. The book also outlines simple steps individuals can follow to prevent and clean up pollution, reinforced by fact boxes, sidebars, and hands-on activities. A glossary, suggested readings, and web links help young readers dig deeper into the topic.
