Product Description: The Whole Earth Catalog for the next generation.
Experts suggest that by 2005, 40 percent of American homes will buy organic, yet a large majority have only a limited knowledge of how to actually make informed, green choices. Green Living, from the editors of E/The Environmental Magazine offers a thorough, step-by-step plan for every aspect of your life, from the laundry room to the kitchen:
Maintaining a healthy home Going organic and avoiding genetically modified food Finding a planet-friendly car Making socially responsible investments Using personal-care products free of damaging chemicals
With advice on everything from planet-friendly cosmetics to home-based renewable energy, and straight talk on hemp, hybrids and hair coloring, Green Living is the ideal reference for both the neophyte and the experienced environmentalist.

Very informative, easy to understand. Great for anyone who wants to learn more about living lighter on the earth.
Rating: - Awesome book!
I love this book. It is exactly want I was looking for. Each chapeter gives good info for someone who is interested in living a green life. And the best part is at the end of each chapter the book gives you lists of company's and/or organizations with contact info/websites having to do with the topic of the chapter.
Rating: - My Bible
My husband calls this book my bible. I read it from front to back. It is an easy read for someone who is trying to get on the green path to life. I just bought five books for the holidays and gave them away to people that I felt would read it, appreciate it but yet have a lot of work to do to green their lives. Spread the word!
Rating: - the path of green living
I truly enjoyed this book. It is a great reference for someone like myself that is new to going green. I enjoy the fact that the book gives you information on why certain products are not healthy and then gives you options on things you can do as well as alternative products to use. This is a great book of reference on your book shelf if you are new to going green. I am sure there are some more intense books if you are aware of the general information this book gives. It was an easy read and has me wanting to make some serious changes (I have already started using organic and vegan soap). I plan on buying this book for various family members and friends.
