 hated this book, unless you're a tree hugger, don't bother July 30, 2008
Ann L. Morris (Drexel Hill, PA United States)
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
And no to say that it's bad being a tree hugger - it's not, but this in an impractical book for everyday living. For every suggestion (there are hundreds) it tells you "if everyone did this in America it would save blah blah blah". Some of these blah blah's are eye opening, but many of them caused my eyes to roll.
They suggest you buy shoes with recycled soles.....seriously. Where do you find shoes with recycled soles? Many many suggestions are repeated throughout the book. Just about every section recommends CFL's and to recycle anything recyclable, turn off lights and unplug items....over and over and over again.
As a matter of fact, go ahead and read the last few sentences, and you've read the book. I recommend Save Money, Save Energy. Much better.
 Great book! July 28, 2008

Easy to read, especially if you don't have a lot of time, it's in sections for convenience!
Finally a great, and easy sustainable book to read July 12, 2008
Francisco Dousdebes (Miami, FL USA)
Great book for understanding environmental issues and how to address them in a daily perspective. This is a mighty fine way to interpret the kind of footprint we all leave and how to minimize such. Very informative on issues we hardly think about, and yet pose a threat to the environment if not carefully managed. The book is worth every single dollar!
Good for the environment, bad for your wallet June 30, 2008

Great premise. Easy to read. Divided into chapters such as health and beauty, home, etc. Great practical tips on how to help the environment. However, some of the tips won't help your wallet. ie. get voicemail instead of an answering machine. Voicemail is about $20 a month so $240/year while an answering machine is $60 one time purchase.

This is a great book for the everyday person trying to do their part is saving the planet. The small things seem so easy, I wondered why I hadn't been doing it all along. Also some unique ideas for around your home.
