Book Reviews of Living Like Ed: A Guide to the Eco-Friendly Life

Book Review: Great Book from Ed
Summary: 5 Stars

I watch his show and enjoy it. The book is an extension of his show. He talks in more detail about how he lives an Eco-Friendly life. I found it informative and realized that the single biggest thing I could do - is more recycling, which I have. I actually used his Ask Ed website to learn more about what to do with more difficult stuff and got an immediate response. The book made me think more about my impact on the world and gave me ideas on what to do. Ed isn't pushy about his agenda - he tries to educate us to go better, which everyone wants to but may not know how. I recommend this book.

Summary of Living Like Ed: A Guide to the Eco-Friendly Life

FROM THE PIONEER OF ECO-CONSCIOUS LIVING

A committed environmentalist for more than thirty years, Ed Begley, Jr., has always tried to "live simply so others may simply live." Now, as more and more of us are looking for ways to reduce our impact on the planet and live a better, greener life, Ed shares his experiences on what works, what doesn't-and what will save you money!

These are tips for environmentally friendly living that anyone-whether you own or rent, live in a private home or a condo-can try to make a positive change for the environment. From quick fixes to bigger commitments and long-term strategies, Ed will help you make changes in every part of your life.

And if you think living green has to mean compromising on aesthetics or comfort, fear not; Ed's wife, Rachelle, insists on style-with a conscience. In Living Like Ed, his environmentalism and her design savvy combine to create a guide to going green that keeps the chic in eco-chic.

From recycling more materials than you ever thought possible to composting without raising a stink to buying an electric car, Living Like Ed is packed with ideas-from obvious to ingenious-that will help you live green, live responsibly, live well. Like Ed.
