'Children have a unique curiosity for Nature and for this amazing planet we call home.' So writes His Majesty King Charles III in his introduction to It's Up to Us: A Children's Terra Carta for Nature, People and Planet.
Join His Majesty, author Christopher Lloyd and 33 amazing award-winning artists from around the world on a beautiful, lyrical and thought-provoking voyage through Nature, the threats we face and an action plan for the future.
It's Up to Us is based on the Terra Carta, a roadmap to sustainability issued by His Majesty King Charles III and his Sustainable Markets Initiative. More than 400 corporations have already signed on, agreeing to put the health of Nature, People & Planet at the heart of their activities. Now it's up to all of us to make sure our leaders keep their promises.
This book has been developed in partnership with The Prince's Foundation, a charity established by His Majesty to demonstrate how Nature can be put at the heart of human activities. Half of all the proceeds from sales will go directly to the work of the charity, based at Dumfries House in Scotland.
Printed in the UK on recycled FSC paper with vegetable inks, and all the carbon impacts of the production have been offset through The World Land Trust and other programmes to reduce carbon emissions around the world.
Thirty-three highly talented children's artists and illustrators are featured in the book, including: Mehrdokht Amini (UK), Harmony Becker (USA), Wesley Bedrosian (USA), Sally Caulwell (Republic of Ireland), Raul Colon (USA), Reza Dalvand (Iran), Owen Davey (UK), Sally Deng (USA), Paolo Domeniconi (Italy), Leah Marie Dorion (Canada), Blak Douglas(Australia), Barry Falls (Northern Ireland), Victoria Fomina (Russia), Gunnella (Iceland), Nick Hayes (UK), Kumiko Horibe (Japan), Isol (Argentina), Su Jung Jang (UK), Murat Kalkavan (Turkey), Gwen Keraval (France), Ye Luying (China), Esteli Meza (Mexico), Poonam Mistry (UK), Rutu Modan (Israel), Musa Omusi (Kenya), Nick Sharratt (UK), Peter Sis (USA), Sydney Smith (Canada), Vanina Starkoff (Brazil), Fotini Tikkou (Greece), Luisa Uribe (Colombia), Stuart Armstrong (USA) and Phung Nguyen Quang & Huynh Kim Lien (Vietnam). Each spread is illustrated by a different artist in the spirit of Terra Carta, to celebrate a global diversity of style, background, race and ethnicity.
Christopher Lloyd is a world history author, educator and lecturer. His books include What on Earth Happened? (Bloomsbury 2008) and Absolutely Everything! (What on Earth Books 2018). He also edited the bestselling Britannica All New Children's Encyclopedia (Britannica Books 2020). It's Up to Us has been written in collaboration with His Majesty's Sustainable Market Initiative and The Prince's Foundation, of which His Majesty is President, which provides holistic solutions to the challenges facing the world today and champions a sustainable approach to how we live our lives and build our communities. Profits from the sale of this book will be used to support the Prince's Foundation's charitable work.
Throughout his adult life, His Majesty King Charles III has dedicated himself to charitable causes, including environmental protection and sustainable development. He launched Terra Carta, his vision for a new contract between nature, people and planet, in early 2021.
