Mr Thinkalot’s Mission Climate Change Children’s Science Fiction Books
My name is
Ian Mayes, I am the author and illustrator of the popular books Mr Thinkalot’s Fantastic Space Journey and Mr Thinkalot’s Spectacular Space Journey. With my passion for storytelling and quirky illustrations, I have created an exciting universe that will spark your imagination and help teach climate change and global warming. Join Mr Thinkalot on his thrilling space adventures and get ready for an intergalactic experience like no other.

We hear about climate change and global warming a lot, it can be scary for younger people who do not understand it. These books will help them learn the subjects but in a gentle positive way.

The reasons as to why I wrote these books was to help any age group who has worries or concerns over climate change and global warming, because climate change affects us all but more importantly it will carry on doing so in the future.

The beautiful Earth and the natural order of things has been keeping our planet rotating for billions of years, the more we expand as humans the more natural land we take away. With deforestation happening rapidly across the globe and increasing carbon dioxide emissions and other harmful gases entering our atmosphere it's no wonder our seasons and weather patterns are changing as the Earth increases in temperature. Our polar Ice glaciers are melting which will only increase the sea levels.

But we can do it, we still have time to make the necessary changes.

Save our planet 🌍 Let's do it.

A bit about the author ✍🏻 📖📘
Hello and thank you for showing interest or for reading this section.

My name is Ian Mayes, I am 40 and I live in the United Kingdom. I love the UK and I enjoy chatting to anyone, whether that be people from the UK or any other part of the world.

One thing I really care about is humanity, Climate change and Global warming, I am fully aware everyone has different views on the subject. There are people who believe and there are people who do not believe in it. Global warming and Climate change can happen naturally on the Earth but humans and our practices and ways of doing things scientifically have been proven to increase the temperature of our planet.

I have Osteoarthiritis and sometimes this slows me down or makes things much harder but I will always persist and strive to do more.

Growing up and being enthralled with nature and our living planet and how things work, how one species may die off/ become extinct and how that can affect other species of animals, bugs etc or even plants and trees.

When I was younger I wanted to learn about all these subjects and also how we can improve things or what effects we have on the planet and how are population increase can affect our surrounding environment.

As I got a bit older and Climate change become more of a conversation spoken about in todays times. I wanted to help younger people understand it as I am fully aware how it can upset or worry others. I wanted to simplify it and explain we have time to change our ways in a positive way.
