Reader Reviews This review is from: You Can Prevent Global Warming (and Save Money!): 51 Easy Ways (Paperback) This book is well-organized, and provides practical information about how the average person can reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. There actually are a lot more than 51 tips since each tip gives a lot of other action steps you can take. It not only rates each action as to whether it's no-cost, low-cost, or an investment item, but also provides financial savings info and - most important - the amount of CO2 emissions prevented by taking the action. Considering the huge financial savings possible by implementing these tips, the book is a bargain. But considering what's at stake, the financial savings are irrelevant. As the book's dedication page states, we take these actions for "... the members of the next generation, who must live with the decisions we make today." Comment (1) | | (Report this)
