It’s impossible to imagine our lives without energy, but how often do we really think about where it comes from? With Power Up!, discovering what you need to know about energy is easy and fun. Every bright, dynamic double-page spread illustrates cool facts about energy use with colourful infographics, including charts, diagrams, and maps. This is where to find out about: The pros and cons of the top energy sources, like fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and hydropower. The straight goods on hot issues like oil sands, fracking, and greenhouse gases. Where will the energy of the future come from: the sun, tides, algae, or something new? What’s vampire power, and why does it suck? What can burning waste do to reduce all that garbage? Designed to appeal to visual learners, reluctant readers, and anyone keen to learn more about the world of energy, Power Up! packs an impressive amount of information into a concise, engaging book and serves as an exciting, accessible introduction to the topic.
