Wake Up and Smell the Planet Mountaineers Books, c2007.
Call number: GE 197 W348 2007
Available in the New Book Area until February 29.
This little soy-ink recycled-paper book covers a typical day chronologically, from morning showers and coffee, what to wear, what to eat, and on to chores and various entertainments at home. The standard topics are covered: saving water, choosing paper or plastic or neither, eating locally grown foods, reusing clothing by buying secondhand, carpooling, composting.
More unusual topics are also covered. Should your cat use the litter box or the toilet? What should you do with the lime you put into the beer bottle that you now want to recycle? Video games. Sex toys. Caskets.
Everyone can find at least one new idea for making life greener in this book.
