Features strategies to apply green principles in your daily life Minimize your impact on the world and enjoy a green lifestyle Want to join the worldwide environmental initiative? This practical guide is packed with realistic ways to help the environment and create a better home for you and your loved ones, from reducing energy use and waste and scaling back reliance on your car to making a difference in your diet, at work, and in your community. You'll see how green living affects the environment and why going green is great for your well-being! Discover how to: Make eco-friendly home improvements Work greener transportation into your lifestyle Eat locally and organically Repair, restore, and reuse Publishers Weekly Like many of the Dummies guides, this audiobook gives the listener an introductory exploration into how one becomes "greener." From the dinner table or the bathroom to the office, the authors provide practical tips and small changes people can make to decrease their waste and environmental footprint. While at times the reading feels like one long bulleted list, listeners can still cull a decent number of ideas to integrate into their lives. However, the authors falter on providing a cohesive approach or method to greener living and occasionally even contradict themselves (encouraging water conservation and then encouraging people to take showers at work). Brett Barry provides the congenial voice one expects from a good salesman or tour guide, which is a significant feat considering the aforementioned listings. The major problem with an audio like this is it either requires repeated listening or lots of pausing in order to write down useful tips. A quick reference guide along with the audiobook would have been greatly beneficial. A For Dummies paperback.Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
