But when a mechanical mishap sends the two traveling back through time, theyâll have to work as a team to return to the present day. In order for the time machine to send them back, the unlikely duo must gather data on recycling throughout the ages - from sustainable marketplaces in Edo Japan to garbage-gobbling pigs in 19th-century NYC. Yet the closer the team gets to the present day, the more that plastic presents a problem: theyâre running out of time. Harnessing their frustration over the daunting ecological future theyâve inherited, Charlie and Oliver discover the ways in which they can use their sustainability knowledge to return home and build a better earth. In this sweeping educational adventure that transports readers across continents and centuries, Washington Post contributor Katie Wheeler invites readers into the history of recycling and how students can reduce plastic waste. Wheelerâs fresh journal-style graphic novel acknowledges the reality of plastic pollution while offering accessible activist solutions, playfully-illustrated sustainability tips, and an optimistic look into how modern scientists are combating waste.Books for a Better Earth are designed to inspire children to become active, knowledgeable participants in caring for the planet they live on. 521 $a RL-5.5. 521 2 $a Grades 5-9. 541 $d 20230918. 650 7 $a Time travel $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Recycling (Waste, etc) $v Juvenile literature. 650 4 $a Sustainability $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Graphic novels. 700 $a Huntington, Trent. 830 $a Books for a Better Earth. 941 $a 1 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20240116011059.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FE2D5C00B43C11EE853221B15BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
