I just started reading the Green Book and I have already found many ideas I can implement now. Composting, sorting, closing the fireplace damper..wow. I am a big advocate of reduce, recyle and reuse. This book give you easy ideas to help our planet and save you money. I recommend to everyone.

This has got to be one of the more inspirational books with ideas on how to save the planet since my high school days reading the prophecy for our planet in "Voyages Scenarios for a Ship Called Earth" by R. Sauer back in the 70's.... Meanwhile get started and go for "The Green Book"
Handy reference, fun to read July 17, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book is a handy reference guide for green living. The various chapters (travel, health and beauty, shopping, entertainment, etc.) contain great tips for conserving energy and saving resources.
The book is also a fun read, with comments by celebrities, and amazing facts such as "if 40% of households reduced their holiday paper consumption by 2 sheets this year, the savings could gift wrap Manhattan island." Pictures such as this throughout the book provide motivation for everyone to do their part.
The reference guide at the end of the book is well organized and easy to use. It is impressive that the authors have donated a portion of the sales to support environmental causes, and have also carbon offset the energy used to produce the book, which is made with 100% recycled paper.

Easy to be "Green" August 4, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is a great reference on very simple things that you would not think about to help make a difference in saving our planet. My 11 year old son reads it and puts it to use. I highly recommend everyone to get a copy and keep it where everyone can see it. Just pick it up and pick a page. By just doing one simple thing in there, we can all make a difference!!!!
