Résumé

The world is full of remarkable places. There's Antartica, the Amazon rainforest, the Galápagos Islands and many more. There is so much to explore, but some of those places might not exist long enough for us to see and experience with our own eyes. The planet is changing and the consequences are devastating. Beautiful and ecologically important sites are burning, sinking, flooding, melting or are otherwise being destroyed because of human-caused global warming. But there is hope.
Many environmental scientists say that if we do something now, we can reduce our impact on the planet. In Gone Forever?, take a trip around the world to discover the incredible places at risk and the many people who are using their unique skills to save them. Discover how making small changes can help safeguard these places for future generations and keep them on the map. Praise for Erin Silver: ? "Enthralling.Empowers readers to understand their own human coping mechanisms, while colorful, detailed images soaked in softly muted earth tones build a base of strong general knowledge.
The challenge for readers young and old will be to see who says 'ew' first! A thoroughly engaging, fact-filled book with audacious and memorable animal responses to predators. A must-have for every library."-School Library Journal, starred review for Mighty Scared: The Amazing Ways Animals Defend ThemselvesKey Selling Points: This STEM title discusses how specific places we know and love around the world are being affected by climate change.
The chapters are divided into locations affected by melting, flooding, fire and habitat loss such as Antarctica, Australia, California, the Amazon rainforest and the Galápagos Islands. This is a timely subject as in the last 50 years, hundreds of natural landmarks have changed or disappeared, including Darwin's Arch, the Mukurob ("the Finger of God"), five Solomon Islands, the Dead Sea, the Larsen C ice shelf and Flower Pot Rock.
This book challenges young readers to think about their role as stewards of the planet as it deals with key themes including climate change, climate resilience, climate migrants, conservation and activism. The book features profiles of a wide range of conservation experts, including a wildlife researcher, an ice-core scientist, a veterinarian, an artist, a climate architect and an Indigenous fire management expert.
Erin Silver is an award-winning author of children's fiction and nonfiction, including seven titles with Orca: Rush Hour in the Footprints series, All Consuming, In It to Win It and Good Food, Bad Waste in the Think series, and the picture books Sitting Shiva, Mighty Scared and Plant Attack!.
