Eyes Wide Open

Amanda Kordeliski

4.5 stars 
An amazing nonfiction title addressing environmental and climate concerns in an unbiased way. Fleischman tackles the climate crisis from all points of view and his examination of environmental treaties, pollution and different types of energy are frank and honest. The author points to bias presentation on both sides and the chapter on how to identify who is funding an author, website, news item or book is excellent and will work for any information literacy lesson. 

Extensive source notes, further reading, bibliography and trusted websites sections could be used for even the most rigorous research project. I love that the further reading titles are often incorporated in a text feature within the pages. Highly recommended
