Not only do they represent the largest group of people currently affected by climate change, but they are also more vulnerable than adults to its harmful effects.

This book is an attempt to redress the balance. It brings together the knowledge and opinions of 40 contributors - scientists, development workers, and experts in health, nutrition and children's rights - in an attempt to build up a clear picture of what climate change means for the children of today and tomorrow | |
