Description:
More than three million children die every year due to unhealthy environments. This atlas tackles issues as diversd as the devastating and largely unknown impact of indoor air pollution, the unfashionable tragedy of sanitation, and complex emerging issues like climate change. Full-color maps and graphics demonstrate the threats that children face everywhere, and underscore the impact of poverty on children's health.
