Description
Scientists, engineers, academics and environmentalists warn that unless water use is drastically reduced, severe water shortage will affect the entire planet by 2040. But what does that mean? Why is this happening? What should we do about it? Mind Mappers: Are We Running Out of Water? unravels the issues and the answers. Beautiful illustrations, a unique structure and straightforward narrative make this an engaging, fascinating and illuminating read.
