Word of Mouth: The Food You Eat

by Nancy Bontempo

Overview

One billion people on the planet do not get enough food every day. How does that impact you? Word of Mouth: The Food You Eat looks at environmental stress as it relates to the global food supply-while discussing the changes and challenges we will all face in the future.

Word of Mouth is part of the Second Nature series. Each book examines environmental science from every angle-local, global, historical, and even personal. Young readers learn how to get to the heart of a problem, find out about people who are trying to solve it, and discover how they can get involved now…and in the future. The Second Nature series brings together teachers, scientists, authors, and editors to create a "team strategy" for exploring the most pressing environmental issues of our day.
