Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Between industry and everyday consumption, the amount of pollution produced can be overwhelming. These titles in the Searchlight Books: What Can We Do about Pollution? series succinctly explain how different types of pollution are created, how they affect humans and the environment, and how ordinary citizens can reduce pollution. Fossil Fuel Pollution describes the three main types of fossil fuel pollution solid wastes, wastewater, and air emissions and how each of these causes different hazards to the environment. Accompanied by numerous crisp photos, charts, and graphs, these interrelated books conclude with suggestions for manufacturers and individuals to eliminate waste and pollution.--Leeper, Angela Copyright 2016 Booklist"
