This book is full of easy, practical suggestions to implement everyday... but is overwhelmingly centered around the notion that individual action will change systemic societal issues, and doesn't seem to acknowledge that these issues are rooted in industrial technology and a civilization that's based on persistent disrespect of the Earth. However, when viewed as simply small steps to be taking while working towards a larger liberation, the tips are great and easy to apply. no reviews | add a review

It's nice to be reminded of the power we citizens can wield, plus the book includes some tips on larger-scale projects that are still needed today. It's worth keeping around. ( )
