Synopsis

This volume in the "Let's discuss" series deals with the problem of pollution. The waste products of modern industrial societies pollute the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. The author explains how this has come about and analyzes the effects in relation to the main forms of pollution: radiation pollution, pollution caused by industry and agriculture and the pollution of air and water. The book aims to promote discussion amongst children and it asks the reader to evaluate the enviromnentalists' solutions to the problem. For this purpose, a number of fictional, personal case studies are included which have been taken out of copyright so that they can be copied and distributed in the classroom. These present current arguments on both sides of the pollution debate, spotlighting people working in industry and farming and people who are campaigning against pollution. Finally, the author considers the extent to which society must change in order to reduce the abuse of the environment. The text is complemented by a bibliography, a glossary and an index and is intended to be useful background reading for GCSE studies and those taking the Standard Grade in Scotland.
