Discover the big ideas in conservation that have transformed the
world around us. From the first national parks, through ambitious
schemes such as tackling the ozone hole, and recent global
movements such as the school strikes for climate, humans have made
huge progress in their plans to protect the natural world. The
Greatest Ideas in Conservation takes you on a journey through the
most influential environmental ideas and inventions of the past 100
years, exploring different people, projects and approaches that
have helped to heal our planet. Our world has changed beyond
recognition in the past hundred years. Think Big takes a close-up
look at the amazing ideas that have transformed the way we all
live. Each spread explores a big idea in greater depth, explaining
how it came to be and what evolved from it and assessing its impact
on the world today. 'Genius' panels highlight the great thinkers
behind the ideas, from scientists to inventors, environmentalists
and engineers. Each book also includes carefully selected
activities designed to inspire readers aged 9 and older and
encourage them to nurture their own 'big thinking' and
entrepreneurial spirit. Contents: National parks Clean Air Act DDT
