What is America's Environmental Report Card : Are We Making the Grade? about?

A timely survey of the state of America's environment: how we can take action to achieve a sustainable future.Americans today are increasingly concerned about the state of the environment.

It lays out the scientific facts about water and air pollution, energy, global warming, and the ozone layer in a lively, conversational style, enhanced by illustrations, and charts a course of action for protecting the environment.
