Books with title Environments

Changing Environments, the first book in the People and Environment Series, investigates human and environmental processes and changes. Students are encouraged to consider possible strategies for the management of environments today and in the future. Their concept of environment management is built upon an understanding of how and why specific environments have evolved over different periods of time. This book includes global, regional and local environment examples, using a huge range of educational and geographical teaching resources: topographic maps, aerial photographs, satellite images and extensive colour illustration. It does not assume that students have extensive geographical knowledge, and so is suitable for senior students beginning studies in this area. With its three partner books, it provides a comprehensive base for senior school geography, as well as a rich resource for other subject areas concerned with environmental or social studies.

Using scientific inquiry, readers will learn about the different types of environments, biomes, and the roles of plants and animals. Through everyday connections to science in the real world, see how to keep balance and stability in ecosystems. Includes a note to caregivers, a glossary, a discover activity, and career connections, as well as connections to science history.
