What We’re Reading

Monday, February 9th, 2009

In a post from a few days ago, I gave some tips on how to be more earth friendly around your home. Personally, I love these tips because not only do they provide valuable information on being more environmentally friendly, but often times they put a little bit of money back in your pocket. Who can’t use that?

That got me thinking about a book that I’m currently reading. It’s called The Green Book, by Elizabeth Rogers and Thomas M. Kostgen. It is filled with hundreds of tips on small changes you can make in your everyday life that will make an impact. It’s written in a bulleted style and each chapter is broken down by major areas of life including home, entertainment, travel, and more.

Oh, and the book is made from 100% recycled materials!
