As a child, would you have wanted to live beside a volcano, or would the thought have been too frightening?
While volcanoes are often associated with danger, they also offer incredible opportunities! At Oxford EARTH, we are interested in how volcanic regions can contribute to more sustainable and equitable futures for the communities that live alongside them, through the responsible use of geothermal energy and the critical resources they contain.
These themes are just some of the fascinating ideas explored in Think Big! The Power of Volcanoes, the new children's book by Professor Tamsin Mather and Professor David Pyle
Aimed at readers aged 7 to 10, the book is part of the beautifully illustrated series of single-subject STE(A)M books, introducing young minds to the science behind some of the world's most remarkable phenomena.
If you know a budding geologist, scientist, or simply a curious young reader, this is well worth adding to their bookshelf.
