Synopsis

There has been a dramatic increase in our awareness of and concern about the state of the environment, especially as we now know that something can be done about it simply through our buying power - CFCs and lead-free petrol are just two examples. But there's a lot more we can do to be environmentally aware consumers, and this book offers balanced advice and practical hints on how to go green, pointing out the pros and cons and what compromises may have to be made. As well as covering environment-damaging materials and household appliances in use in home, garden and garage, and what alternatives there are, the guide relates global problems to the individual consumer - how what we eat can effect the environment, the value and drawbacks of recycling (and whether local schemes actually do much good) and ethical investments.
