5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent advice which poses a lot of questions, 25 Feb 2005
By Budge Burgess (Kilmarnock, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
A book which provides exactly what it says on the cover - "over five hundred daily ways to save the planet". The ethos is clear - if you wish to lead a greener lifestyle and contribute to the greening of the planet, then there are scores of practical steps you can be taking. We can't wait for the politicians to act, we have to set the pace by making our own political and consumer choices now. 'Go M.A.D.' offers about as many practical ideas as you will need.

Divided into a series of sections - Home, Family, Energy, Shopping, Waste, Wildlife, Leisure, Outdoors, Food, Travel, Transport, Health, Work, Money, plus a Contacts list - the authors provide useful tip after useful tip. You'll find advice on choices of appliance such as washing machines or fridges, how to avoid toxic chemicals in your detergents, ecologically constructive leisure options, creating a safer environment for your children, reducing water waste at home and work, etc., etc., etc.

The book is packed with practical snippets and ideas ... so densely packed it can hardly be described as a good read or as accessible. You find yourself having to search for information - this can be a bit tedious in places, but, on the other hand, as you search you find other little ideas which hadn't occurred to you, so it is a bit of an adventure in discovery. The book abounds with addresses, contact numbers and websites you can use to obtain green products and advice. Perhaps the best option is to use a technique employed in another book ( "52 weeks to change your world" ), and simply trawl through 'Go M.A.D.' to identify a hit list of 52 things you could introduce into your lifestyle, 52 changes you can make, then introduce one per week.

It is a highly informative book - if a trifle bitty and disjointed in places - and it benefits from you 'personalising' it by looking for specific areas of advice you can incorporate into your way of life. Don't just use it as a reference title to be looked at when you want to know what a particular detergent does, use it as a means of setting goals. Start, for instance, by washing your clothes at 40º.

If you want to lead a greener lifestyle, then this is a book you should have in your home ... and one you should share with friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best by far., 4 April 2006
By G. Morris "cherrytreebluebell2" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Anyone who needs to know more about being greener, becoming an eco warrior and saving the planet will search the internet and countless books looking for advice and inspiration. Look no further: This is the best, most cost effective guide to achieving your goals. Whilst there are many good books on the subject of green living this knocks spots off the best of them. It is the follow up book to 365 ways to save the planet which was still better than its nearest rival so you do the math.
Absolutely great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do something - it's not that difficult!, 26 Jul 2004
By A Customer
This is an excellent book for those who are concerned about the impact that we are having on the environment. It is easy to get overwhelmed with the enormity of the problems with the environment, but this book provides 500 ways in which you can really make a difference.

I have changed the way that I shop and what I use as a direct impact of reading this book - it is written in the form of handy tips so is one of those books that you can just pick up and browse through when you have a few minutes.

The other great thing is that if you have ideas of your own that you can share them with the rest of the world by sending them into the publishers who will consider including them in the next edition - imagine the impact your idea could have!!

I really recommend that you read this book and aim to make at least 10 changes to the way you impact on the environment. It really does make a difference.

Over 500 ways to save the planet? Well, it certainly gets you thinking. Clearly, some of the ideas are easier to implement than others (for example recycling plastic bottles as... Read more
