Two media experts offer a warm, witty and relatable exploration of how information pollution affects our online worlds, empowering young readers to weave safe and inclusive digital networks.
We all know that pollution damages our physical environments – but what about the digital landscape? Touching on everything from goat memes gone wrong to conflict in group chat, to the unexpected side effects of online activism, this lively book helps readers understand how information pollution spreads, and why.

Featuring a hyperconnected cast of teens and their social-media shenanigans, reader-friendly text tackles the thorny topic of internet ethics, while empowering and inspiring young readers to create a safe, stress-free and inclusive digital space.
