Eco living tips by Hollywood

The Green Book – The Everyday Guide to Saving the Planet, One Simple Step at a Times is guide to over 400 small things you can do in your lifestyle that will make positive effects on the Environment. What is unique about it is that it features contributions from celebrities. There are many of them who are setting a good example in the way they live.

We are the bad guys this book rightly points out. Americans waste twice much water and energy as other global citizen. We make 4.5 pounds of trash everyday per person. This at a time when global resources are becoming scarcer as populations rise. Something’s got to give.

We can be the change if we simply change our habits. There are many practical easy simple solutions in this book without sounding too preachy. Use cloth shopping bags, you don’t need all those ATM receipts, turn of the tap water while you brush, unplug devices when charged, use less paper napkins, rid yourself of junk mail, no more plastic utensils, user refill containers…

The book is broken down into small pieces so you won’t feel overwhelmed. It’s perfect for that coffee table in an office waiting area where perhaps others can learn from it!
