PRODUCT SUMMARY
This series is still available for purchase, however we recommend the Environmental Science for Students DVD series which is also from Schlessinger Media.
Former MTV host Kevin Seal presents this fascinating look at the most important environmental issues of our time. Based on Chelsea House Publishers' highly acclaimed book series, these programs introduce and define environmental terms and global ecological dilemmas, present current statistical information, stimulate discussion on conservation and recycling, and provide active suggestions for battling the growing threats to our environment. Each topic is presented with spectacular footage from the EPA, the UN, Greenpeace, NASA, the National Park Service and other environmental groups, along with music and witty host commentary. The subjects are explored through various perspectives, including expert researchers of environmental issues, the Earth at Risk Scholars conducting field experiments and colorful graphics illustrating otherwise complex environmental phenomena.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS
"
...The Earth at Risk series is highly recommended...Editor's Choice." - Video Librarian"The videos present up-to-date facts about the topic with charts, computer graphics, statistical facts, and interviews with environmentalists and other scientists. Each program moves quickly and smoothly from segment to segment; the segments featuring teenage students will especially appeal to teen viewers who will be able to duplicate the experiments themselves." - School Library Journal
"The series message...is effectively made...well produced...Good choices for school and public libraries."- Library Journal
