 Simple and to the point April 6, 2008
This was my very first "green" purchase. I love it, it has changed my life. I was not even aware of being environmently friendly and when I became aware I was a little overwhelmed at all the things I could do to make a change. This book was a perfect start, tons of information.
I am now aware!

Mostly a list of tips and tricks for green choices. Weird quotes from celebrities about their green thoughts. A little simple and basic.
Where is the Creative Website??? March 18, 2008

I liked the book (on loan from the library). Too much to remember in one sitting - so I assumed there would be a creative web site that would send me weekly emails for suggestions and reminders from the book. But just a site to promote the book.

This is a "Green Lite" book. It is filled with the obvious, so if you have no clue, this book is for you. In addition to the obvious, the book also contains some gross and ridiculous statements.
Here is one of my favorites:
"Making coffee uses about 1/3 of the tap water consumed. If every worker cut back on water fill by one cup, we'd save almost 10 million gallons a day. Over the course of a year, this would save eough water to provide 2 gallons to the 1.2 billion people on the planet who don't have access to safe water at all."
I'm afraid this statement by the authors was not meant as a joke. It reminds me of when parents would tell their kids to clean their plate because "there are hungry people in the world."
I mean, how in the world will the "saved" water be transported? This is precisely the type of drivel to be found in this book.
