"This personal, picture-packed, practical guide to saving the planet is delivered in lucid, inspirational style."
With over 200 “sustainable swaps” for families to implement, Everyday Ways to Save Our Planet by TV meteorologist Laura Tobin is a personal, practical and achievable guide to countering climate change.
Written in response to many people feeling overwhelmed by what they can personally do to make a difference, Tobin takes us back to basics by breaking down the science in clear terms, before explaining how we can all do our bit to have a collective big impact, and it’s all underpinned by an inclusive can-do outlook: “My philosophy is that no one can do everything, but everyone can do something”.
Sharing anecdotes from her own family's experiences, Tobin takes readers through areas of everyday life — from energy, water and transport, to how we manage our bathrooms, gardens and kitchens. Alongside fact files and infographics that make for sobering reading, we're presented with fixes to habits that hurt the environment. We can, for example, all easily brew our tea better, bathe better, and buy better.
In short, Everyday Ways to Save Our Planet is an informative and welcoming step-by-step resource for anyone who isn’t sure how to start living their best eco-friendly life.
