It's Getting Hot in Here: The Past, Present, and Future of Climate Change (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780544303478)

Tackling the issue of global warming head-on for a teen audience, this acclaimed book examines the science behind it, the history of climate change on our planet, and the ways in which humans have affected the current crisis we face.

It's Getting Hot in Here takes an in-depth look at the facts: how we got where we are today as a planet, how we know that the climate is changing, and what can be done in order to avoid making the situation even worse. We are changing our global environment--but it's not too late to take action now to ensure a brighter future for us all.

The acclaimed author Bridget Heos takes a hard look at the facts sur-rounding global warming--tackling history, science, politics, and economics, while also providing hope that each of us can be the change that makes a difference in the world climate crisis.

"Well-researched and comprehensible, it's an alarming, but never alarmist, examination of a critical topic." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
