Earth Cycles: Energy

A vivid look at nature’s patterns and cycles, seen through the example of energy, which constantly flows, transforming itself in many different ways. We use energy to do all kinds of things, from running to washing our clothes, and we can use and store energy in many forms – batteries, food, fuel. The energy comes to Earth from the sun, and powers all the planet’s living organisms, returning back into the biosphere as waste products and heat. This simple book explains the process in easy-read text and vibrant illustrations, exploring themes such as food energy, fossil fuels, biofuels and sustainable energy.
