Caring For Our Environment

Description

Ways into Geography: Caring for Our Environment explores how our surroundings can be spoiled, and looks at how we can all help to keep our local area clean by picking up litter, recycling and walking to school, rather than going by car. It also looks at what we can do to protect local wildlife. Ways into Geography is an ideal introduction to geography. It combines simple text and colourful illustrations to teach basic geographical skills and build up confidence and enthusiasm.
