This book does not mention that building dams to trap water for hydroelectric plants causes disruptions and damage to the river and surrounding ecosystems and causes emissions of methane gas, a powerful greenhouse gas. This might be important to mention.
It also says that water "doesn't get used up." However, it might be good to remind students that fresh and clean water does get used up, particularly in arid locations or in drought-stricken areas.
The phrase "climate change" is not mentioned in this book.
