3.0 out of 5 stars Great concept, but a bit slim in places, 25 Feb 2005
By Budge Burgess (Kilmarnock, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
It's an interesting little book - emphasis on the little, being small enough to fit into a shirt pocket. It offers an idea per week to help you change the world by adopting a greener lifestyle. The authors begin by suggesting that you convert to using long life light bulbs, then week-by-week, that you adopt other practices which reduce your impact on the globe and move you towards a sustainable lifestyle. The message is clear - don't sit back and wait for someone else to save the planet, the onus is on you to take the first step yourself.

It is to the credit of the authors that they don't simply keep to practical little themes like lighting. They also suggest that you get active! As well as pointing you towards means of washing your clothes in a way which won't pollute the waterways, they suggest you join political movements, get out and protest ... and take practical measures to improve your own health, like giving up smoking.

The book is built around two essential themes, and it is these which give it its value and its impetus: set yourself achievable, weekly goals, and recognise that developing a green lifestyle is a case of developing green habits! Take each habit and learn to live by it a week at a time.

Overall, however, the book does tend to be a little bit slim on ideas. It offers plenty of referral advice - giving you websites to view and suppliers of green wares to contact. But you are left feeling that all the advice could have been printed on a sheet of paper. If you do buy it, use it as a starting point to create your own themes; take from it what you need, add to it what you can, and use your diary or calendar to set your own agenda for personal change by introducing new, greener habits to your lifestyle.
