Children For Change will empower, motivate and mobilise children with stories that inspire an action. From love letters to Planet Earth, passionate appeals on behalf of endangered species, stories and illustrations inspiring day-to-day actions on everything from energy consumption to transport options to our food miles, poems extolling the beauty and fragility of habitats, illustrations inspiring community and civic actions, to features on fast fashion, measuring our carbon footprint, sustainability and rewilding – all sowing the seeds for a better future. This collection is packed full of actionable messages and eco-tips to help children to start to take small steps which make
a big impact.

Climate change is one of the biggest threats our future generations face today. 70% of children worry about the world they will inherit with some 60% of children thinking climate change and inequality are affecting their generation’s mental health in the UK*. We need to find ways to educate them about the causes, effects and solutions without generating eco-anxiety, as well as giving them ways to help change and protect the planet. *(Source: Save the Children survey 2022.)

world’s response. It is a new ebook collection of exclusive new stories, poems, illustrations and features, inspiring young readers to ‘take an action’ – big or small, local or global – to protect our environments.
