First off, I consider myself more “eco” than most – but was so impacted by this book that I immediately bought a copy for my sister too. This is a well-written, balanced and necessary read for absolutely everyone. It’s an urgent call to action as well. After reading it, I have been walking through my home – every room, and considering all the things I actually have the power to change (and will now, as much more is in my power to change than I thought!). I love that many of the tips will help me save money, too. :)This is now my go-to reference book for eco-mindful living, shopping, and living in harmony with the environment. The author thoughtfully takes the time to carefully explain so many things – from clothing to skincare to cookware and even furniture. And, decode what all the (very confusing) certifications out there on products ACTUALLY mean (and don’t really mean – ie, “greenwashing”), as well as considerations I never knew about before. Like harmful chemicals and concerning environmental justice issues in the creation of products we buy every day… I learned so much.The author’s passion for our planet and environmental justice is both very palpable and inspiring! The book is very thorough in all the topics it covers. I also like that the format is clear and well-sectioned out so you can jump to any topic you want to read. I’m really happy that I bought this book. Highly recommend!!
