"The Environment Project: Solutions for a Changing World is for students of Environmental Science and also for anyone in classes with an international outlook. Twelve units with a learner-centered approach provide copious practice in all four skills, while covering vocabulary on a range of timely topics such as recycling, pollution, erosion, nuclear energy, and environmental economics.

Designing Solutions

At its heart is a series of ""Design It"" activities where students create and present solutions to issues related to the topics involved, encouraging them to think outside the box and helping them build a solid foundation in collaborative problem solving, discussing, and presenting that will be useful in their future lives and careers.

Flexible Approach

The Environment Project is highly flexible and can be used as a main coursebook at various levels of instruction, and is also easily adapted to function as supplementary material for a range of other course types. The activities are varied and engaging, and the listening features a radio podcast recorded at various levels of difficulty to allow teachers to select the most appropriate for the class. Other activities can be adapted to large and small classes, as well as high, low, and mixed-level groups. Full details and notes are provided in a comprehensive Teacher's Pack, available on request from the publisher.

"Jeff Morrow is originally from the US and currently teaches in the Department of Environmental & Symbiotic Sciences at the Prefectural University of Kumamoto, Japan. He has a PhD in economics and has been teaching at the university level in Japan for over 20 years. He currently researches ESP learning for non-English majors and the role of English ability in tourism. His interests include writing fiction, playing guitar and writing music, hiking and mountain biking, and traveling. Michi Mathias enjoys using illustration to make complicated things clear and creating observational comics to convey random aspects of real life. After a distant past of trying to draw ""properly,"" her work has now veered toward a somewhat wonky style, using old-fashioned ink and watercolour on paper."
