Content:
"The primary goal of this book is to provide a coherent, engaging narrative that uses multi-disciplinary concepts to synthesize principles and issues linked to climate change and sustainability into a story of global context. Place-based learning situations enable readers to connect underlying science with significant social, political, ethical, and economic issues in various regions, to synthesize concepts, and to understand-in context-the interconnected world in which we live. The 'storytelling' narrative is a powerful tool that fosters human and environmental connections and enhances understanding through indirect experience."--
