About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager begins questioning the media headlines they see on social media or expresses a cynical view of climate change politics. This is not just another book of nature facts, it is a tool kit for critical thinking. Paul Fleischman helps young readers move beyond the feeling of being overwhelmed by explaining the deep-seated psychological and political reasons why people resist environmental change. By exploring concepts like vested interests and denial, the book empowers teens to see through the noise. It is a sophisticated, age-appropriate guide that treats teens like the future leaders they are, focusing on understanding the world rather than just worrying about it. It turns climate anxiety into a project of intellectual discovery.
