Book News Annotation:Are you the turn off the tap while brushing your teeth type, the
low-flow shower head type, or can you go all the way with a low-flow
toilet? Environmental journalist Bongiorno gives readers options as
she describes how to take small steps toward reducing that pesky
carbon footprint. With every topic she gives sets of progressive
alternatives, starting with the most basic and advancing toward true
grit, starting with food and moving on to beverages, personal care,
babies and children, home building and improvement, energy and water,
apparel and furnishings, cleaning, yards and gardens, and
transportation. The recommendations are flexible and easy to do in
small increments, giving readers lots of options and very little
guilt. The result is a useful-pocket-sized guide you can use as a
reference or even for light (but serious) reading.
