Book description
Many environmentalists have reservations about the role the individual can play in saving the earth. Christenson agrees that corporate pollution and government policies are mostly to blame, but she maintains that personal change is an essential part of changing public attitudes, and it is public attitudes that will force the necessary changes in industry and technology. Home Ecology is not a green consumer guide. It is about living better, not buying better—about beginning the process of long-term change to a sustainable way of life. It's about choices. Although every choice you make may not change the world, at the very least, it changes you. The book is organized into 15 sections: time, food, shopping, recycling, energy, transportation, air, water, health the nontoxic home, radiation, light, gardening, pets, and children. It is a complete overview to improving your way of life, step by step.
