Book Reviews of Living Green: A Practical Guide to Simple Sustainability

Book Review: A So So Book
Summary: 3 Stars

I was not very satisfied with this book. Even though it is only a couple of years old, it seems to miss some very important things. I was hoping this book would give a better refrence to things than it did, such as recipies for cleaners, diy projects and the like. However, it was a more of an outline on steps to live greener, with quips from his personal life. Several of his suggestions would also require money that the average person doesnt have (especially in this economy!) and therefor they do not seem very practical. I was also very dissapointed with the coverage on feminine hygene and there was no mention of such things as Diva Cups, one the greenest feminine hygene products that exists.

This book might be good for someone just starting to venture into green living, but I would not recommend it to someone already living green and looking for ways to expand.
