Not all heroes wear capes, some just a yellow trench! Greta is only
the last of a series of eco-heroes who, with their strength and
loud voice, brought world's attention to ecological issues to
defend nature and the environment. This title presents some of the
most important "eco-heroes", both men and women, some of a very
young age, who battled for a cleaner world or the safety of
animals. From WWF's founder Julian Huxley, to Greenpeace's, from
National Geographic explorers Mike Fay and Michale Nichols to
Swedish Greta Thunberg: read their stories and what they have
accomplished! Great examples for children to follow: everyone who
has a voice and strong ideas can become an eco-hero!
You don't need a mask or cloak to be a hero, nor do you need
superpowers - merely courage and determination. There are many such
heroes, everywhere, from sport to science, to art and politics.
These men and women are beyond us, they have shown it is possible
to unite brains with love. What makes their lives and adventures so
special is that they are so normal, just like you and me. Some have
been able to overcome the greatest obstacles to better the most
unthinkable challenges, and others have had to try and try again to
obtain revolutionary achievements, but all have had an incredible
drive. Martin Luther King, Frida Kahlo, Stephen Hawkins, Bebe
Vio... a long list of people who, from the beginning of the 20th
century until today, encourage us to think of what we could all be
capable of. This book will give you some interesting facts and
unknown information on these contemporary heroes, as exceptional as
they are normal.
