A Generation Rising For Life On Earth
By Ocean Robbins and Sol Solomon
In 1994, two of YES!’s founders released a book by and for teens. Choices For Our Future discusses complex global issues in a simple and engaging style that is at once powerful and practical. The authors share their perspectives and feelings, growing up in a troubled world, and what brings them hope. They share information on environmental issues, and how we can each make choices to bring about a better future. This book is a valuable resource for young people, or for anyone who wants to take a straight-forward, inspiring look at our world through the eyes of two youth committed to positive change.
