Often hilarious, always insightful, never dry - this is a ‘diet' book for detoxing humanity. There are plenty of weighty, dry, and guilt inducing 'how to be green' tomes available. Rest assured, this isn't one of them! Carbon Detox guides us through the science, cutting through the hyperbole surrounding climate change and explaining the changes each of us can make at home, at work and in every aspect of our lives. George Marshall shows you how to carbon audit your life and start reducing your impact today. He explains how to overcome psychological blocks such as scepticism, fear and feelings of insignificance. There is also advice on low carbon transport options and holidays and how to create an energy-efficient home. This is honestly the most inspiring and enjoyable read that tackles climate change we believe has yet been published.
256pp, 126mm x 198mm, softback, 2007
