Interested in science books that cover topics about the environment and green technology?

Look no further than Enslow's Team Green Science Projects. Using the scientific method, middle school readers will engage in experiments from life, physical, and earth science while learning what they can do to go green. With a lifetime achievement award for his science writing, Robert Gardner presents great ideas for winning science fair projects.



Using the scientific method, perform hands-on experiments that explain the properties of air, how to conserve energy while heating and cooling air, and how to reduce air pollution.

Earth Cycle's informative text is paired with hands-on science projects using the scientific method that show readers how their actions effect the environment and its natural cycles.

Energy will answer the following questions: What material best absorbs solar energy? How can wind and water be used to create energy? How does insulation affect heat flow? Use easy-to-find materials and the scientific method to explore green energy.

In Recycle, author Robert Gardner guides young readers through many experiments that show readers how waste harms the environment and how to limit their impact.

What is soil? How do plants grow in soil? How is contaminated soil cleaned? Using the scientific method, readers will explore Earth's soil and learn how to protect it.

Protect Earth's water! Water is essential for life, so it is essential we protect this important resource. Using the scientific method, the properties of water, the water cycle, and how to conserve water will be explained.
