Slurp chomp slurp … Some people are very greedy. They want too much of everything. They want to eat their cake and still have it. You and I know that's not possible.... but the cake they're gobbling is our planet. You might say that these greedy people are EATING our FUTURE... That's your future, your children's future and the future of many other living things - like penguins (ouch!), polar bears or panthers. In this guide, I take you for a look at what's happening now, what might happen in a few years and what you can do to help make things better. I've also made two quizzes to help show you how you're doing.
