Going Blue: A Teen Guide to Saving Our Oceans, Lakes, Rivers, & Wetlands


By Philippe Cousteau(@pcousteau) + Cathryn Berger Kaye. Book Trailer.

Water is the most important substance on Earth; it is also the most threatened—by climate change, trash, and pollution (such as the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico). Young people across the globe are responding to the world water crisis by transforming their ideas and energy into action and participating in service learning. "Going Blue," written by international service learning expert Cathryn Berger Kaye and environmental activist Philippe Cousteau, vividly presents facts and statistics about Earth's oceans and waterways and information about the issues surrounding our current water crisis. Readers will find a wealth of strategies and examples that help them see themselves as change agents and move forward to complete an effective service project. http://www.freespirit.com/goingblue
