You've heard the news—the world is getting warmer. Even the very largest of ecosystems, our oceans, are feeling the heat. The oceans cover more than 70 percent of the globe. They are home to more than 80 percent of life on Earth—from seaweed to sharks. They store heat. They regulate our weather. They provide much of our food. Many of our cities hug their shores. Stellar science writer, Laurie Goldman, describes how Earth is responding to climate change and what it means for our future. Packed with dozens of full-color photographs and illustrations.
For readers ages 9 and up.
