By 2100, the sea could climb as much as 6.6 feet (2 m) higher than it is today. Rising Seas gives youth an eye-popping view of what the Earth might look like under the rising sea levels of climate change. Photographs juxtapose the present-day with that area’s projected future. The shocking images will help readers understand the urgency for action. This updated and expanded edition features three new locations — London, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and Manila, the Philippines — as well as brand new sections about climate anxiety (and what you can do about it) and how the world worked together to close the ozone hole, giving young readers a reason to hope for a better future.
