Our world is full of wonders. From historic cities, castles and
cathedrals to magnificent mountains, rainforests and oceans, the
world's greatest treasures belong to all humankind. This is our
world heritage. But our heritage is constantly under threat - from
natural disasters, wars, climate change, construction, pollution
and mass tourism. In this book, we visit over 70 World Heritage
Sites in 52 countries. We find out how communities, governments and
organisations are working to save this extraordinary inheritance.
And we meet the people involved - the experts patiently restoring
great works of art, park rangers risking their lives to defend rare
wildlife, and young volunteers learning to protect the environment.
Saving Our World Heritage is published in partnership with UNESCO,
the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organisation. UNESCO created the idea of recognising a place as a
World Heritage Site as a way of protecting it. Today, its World
Heritage Centre works to keep these precious sites safe from danger
and preserve them for future generations.
Would you rather visit the hottest place on Earth? Or the coldest?
Behind each of these silly scenarios are some fun facts to help YOU
CHOOSE an answer. You Choose is an entertaining and humorous series
that encourages children to develop their critical thinking and
decision-making skills. Full of brainteasers and supported by
educational information, children will learn some bizarre and
amazing facts about the prehistoric beasts who once roamed the
planet. Perfect for readers aged 9+
