Explore the Arctic Ocean in this beautifully illustrated children's
book for readers aged 9+ Perched at the northernmost tip of the
world, the icy Arctic Ocean is the smallest of Earth's oceans. Its
temperature rarely reaches above freezing and it is dotted with
thick pack ice and craggy icebergs. The people and animals that
live in this polar climate have uniquely adapted to make it their
home. But this precious habitat is at risk from our warming
climate, as well as pollution and industry. The oceans make up
Earth's biggest habitat. More than 70 per cent of Earth's surface
is covered by oceans and seas and they hold more than 97 per cent
of Earth's water supply. Oceans drive the world's weather, provide
half of the oxygen we breathe and provide food and livelihoods for
more than a billion people. Blue Worlds explores each of the
world's five oceans and major seas in detail, looking at the
different features - from wildlife and weather to landscape - that
make them all individual and unique. It also looks at the threats
that they face, such as global warming, overfishing and pollution.
