"Nature Is The Answer bursts with ideas, solutions and love for the wondrous, fragile living world of which we are part. It reminds us that hope is a verb with its sleeves rolled up. It shows us that the best answer to anxiety or despair is action — and that just because we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything. Read it and leap!" – Robert MacfarlaneUnderstand eco-anxiety, build resilience, and make sure your demands for the future are heard with this kids’ guide to facing green grief.
