Book Reviews of Big Green Purse: Use Your Spending Power to Create a Cleaner, Greener World

Book Review: It Is Not Easy Being Green
Summary: 5 Stars

This book makes lots of sense. It's more important then ever to actually read labels and consider packaging when you buy things. Maybe if more people would spend their money only with companies and products that make the effort then there would be more manufacturers and businesses thinking "green." I've found that it's very easy to "go green" in some areas and very hard (or expensive) in others. You have to do what you can. If we all do something then eventually it shouldn't be more expensive to buy biodegradable and sustainable products in packaging made from recycled material, or at least packaged in material that is recyclable.
