A Good Read


My cousin recommended this book after reading my blog: The Consumer's Guide To Effective Environmental Choices: Practical Advice From The Union Of Concerned Scientists. The book is full of in-depth analysis of consumer impact on the environment. It offers practical solutions for regular families looking to reduce their impact. 

The most important thing I learned in this book: don't sweat the small stuff. Cloth diapers are small stuff. Cars, air travel and home heating are not small stuff. 

It's amazing that a book written nine years ago is still relevant. Amazing that things really haven't changed in that time and the average consumer is still not savvy about the decisions they should be making.
