Beschreibung

"Helpful and hopeful." -John Green, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars A Better World Is Possible is a comprehensive and graphic novel guide on climate change and what you can do about it. As climate change quickens-bringing with it extreme weather, biodiversity loss, and humanitarian crises-four teens help organize the world's largest climate protest. Hundreds of thousands join them, taking to the streets of New York City and demanding answers. How did climate change get this bad? Who's to blame? And most importantly: What can we do about it? In their stunning graphic novel, New York Times best-selling illustrator Danica Novgorodoff and award-winning environmental journalist Meera Subramanian share experiences from their lives and those of the four youth activists. Through their stories, we learn the science behind our changing planet and explore solutions at hand. They show us that anyone can make meaningful change, because a better world is possible-and together, we can create it!
