I need a book like this – I have good intentions but need guidance!
Looks like a very interesting read.
I went to the Sunrise festival this summer and after listened to lots of different environmental talks there. As a result I now want to read more (and hopefully do more as well…).
We’re always having competitions in our household as to who is the greenest! This would settle many an argument!
I have been looking for some green and eco living tips and this looks like it could be the answer.
I would love to win this book; since having my first child 6 months ago I’ve been trying to become more environmentally aware. I already use washable nappies and wipes, and I bet this book is full of loads of good ideas!
I’ve just shared on Facebook…
…and tweeted a link to the competition too!
Hope you get plenty of new readers as the site is great!
