Book Reviews of The Green Guide to Daily Living
Book Review: A clever guide to everyday greening
Summary: 5 Stars
I gave this book five stars for its clever and accessible account of the greener side of life. This is a great manual and reference guide to making your life a little bit more environmental friendly.
I've read other books on the subject and found them rather dry. This one, however, is un-pretentious and entertaining. The book can serve as a guide to re-inventing your life or it can be used as an extremely easy-to-use reference to the planet-friendliness of your everyday activities.
The Green Guide tells both sides of the story (like I said, un-pretentious and informative) and is definitely worth your time!

From grocery shopping and housecleaning to driving, traveling, and contributing to your community greening effort, The Green Guide to Daily Living organizes facts in short, reader-friendly text with lots of bullet points, lists, and sidebars for quick digestion and incorporation into daily life. Facts and how-tos include: conserving water and energy, toxin checklist, calculating your carbon footprint, evaluating your planetary impact, making your own natural personal care products, eco vacations, and biofuels.Conservation Books
