Written by Sneed Collard III and Action for Nature, a USA environmental education organization based in San Francisco, "Acting for Nature" provides engrossing and inspirational accounts of young people from eleven countries who chose to take action to improve the environmental conditions in their communities. Spanning the globe, the real life stories of boys and girls in familiar and far-off places transcend all political and geographical boundaries -- Judith and Miriam in Spain organizing "The Great Green March" to stop pollution of the Ebro River in Spain, Vincent from Kenya working in the impoverished slums of Nairobi to plant trees and set up recycling centers, Tom from New Zealand rescuing the native penguins from urban sprawl and Aika, the twelve year old Japanese girl, creating her book, Secrets of the Earth to teach other children about our planet. Their stories as well as those of other dedicated children serve as an inspiration for people of all ages to work globally to improve the conditions of their communities and the environment.
