| Publisher Description: Fossil Fuels are an important part of the Earth. Humans have come to rely on them as a source of energy. What exactly are fossil fuels?

Endangered Energy answers these questions by engaging readers with lively text, graphic features, and stunning photography. Readers will discover why fossil fuels matter to them and the part they play in protecting them. |
