Each one had an entire ecosystem to discover and explore, along with distinct species that had adapted specifically to their environment. In Biomes: Discover the Earth’s Ecosystems with Environmental Science Activities for Kids, I focused on nine biomes: deciduous forests, coniferous forests, tropical rainforests, deserts, temperate grasslands, tropical savannas, tundra, mountains, and oceans. By taking a tour of the earth’s different biomes, we can see how interconnected all species actually are and how important it is to take of the environment where you live-because whatever happens to the land, water, and air where you are will have repercussions elsewhere in the world. ![]() ![]() That’s what I did when I set out to write a book about what it’s like to live on Planet Earth. One way that makes it easier is to think of the planet as a whole system and imagine it as being sectioned into different biomes. It can be easy to forget and hard to imagine just how much area there is and how many organisms share it. We’ve got oceans, rainforests, icebergs, and a huge range of diverse species living all over the place!Įarth is amazing, and it’s also enormous. We can all agree that Earth is a pretty amazing planet. ![]() “Environmental Science Activities for Kids” ![]()
