Synopsis
In the growing debate over eco-friendly living, it seems that everything is as bad as everything else. Do you do more harm by living in the country or the city? Is it better to drive a thousand miles or take an airplane?
In NO IMPACT MAN, Colin Beavan tells the extraordinary story of his attempt to find some answers - by living for one year in New York City (with his wife and young daughter) without leaving any net impact on the environment. His family cut out all driving and flying, used no air conditioning, no television, no toilets. . .They went from making a few concessions to becoming eco-extremists. The goal? To determine what works and what doesn't, and to fashion a truly 'eco-effective' way of life.
Beavan's radical experiment makes for an unforgettable and humorous memoir in an attempt to answer perhaps the most important question of all: What is the sufficient individual effort that it would take to save the planet? And what is stopping us?

Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Condition: Bueno. : En 'No Impact Man', Colin Beavan narra la extraordinaria historia de su intento por encontrar algunas respuestas viviendo durante un año en la ciudad de Nueva York (con su esposa y su joven hija) sin dejar ningún impacto neto en el medio ambiente. Su familia eliminó todos los viajes en coche y en avión, no usó aire acondicionado, ni televisión, ni baños. Pasaron de hacer algunas concesiones a convertirse en eco-extremistas. ¿El objetivo? Determinar qué funciona y qué no, y crear un modo de vida verdaderamente 'eco-efectivo'. El radical experimento de Beavan constituye unas memorias inolvidables y humorísticas en un intento de responder quizás a la pregunta más importante de todas: ¿Cuál es el esfuerzo individual suficiente que se necesitaría para salvar el planeta? ¿Y qué nos lo impide?
