Save Pollinators focuses on the importance of pollinators and the extinction crisis, what is threatening pollinators, what we can do to help pollinators, and what is already being done to combat the pollinator extinction crisis. The Take Action: Save Life on Earth series lays out environmental problems in easy-to-understand language and provides practical advice to readers about meaningful ways they can influence important change for our planet. Part of our 21st Century Skills Library, this series presents high-interest natural science nonfiction content with a timely focus.

Booklist

Many of the planet’s animals and plants are on the brink of extinction, and the Take Action: Save Life on Earth series aims to educate young people on how they can make a difference. Each topical volume uses clear text and related facts to explain why the featured animal group, plant group, or ecosystem is important to Earth and some of the many reasons (e.g., climate change, pesticides, and invasive species) it is becoming endangered. In addition, each volume includes conservation suggestions specific to its subject (e.g., becoming a citizen scientist or using more renewable energy). Save Amphibians focuses on the sensitive skin of these indicator species and ways to save water for wildlife. Save Birds looks at the roles birds play in an ecosystem-for instance, pollinating and stopping the spread of disease by eating insects and rodents-and how technology is being used in conservation efforts. Save Native Plants describes how plants create habitats for other wildlife and how agriculture is the biggest threat to native plant species. Save Ocean Life spotlights the importance of healthy oceans in sustaining life on Earth and how the overuse of plastic has harmed the oceans. Ways to speak up for animals, plants, and their ecosystems and a culminating conservation activity conclude this relevant environmental series.
