Subtitled, "A Manual For A New Material World". An inventory of how we consume stuff, and a wake-up call to live life in a more environmentally friendly way.
Synopsis
Environmental issues can feel overwhelming. But, in fact, it is simple; it all comes down to one thing - stuff. Our use of the Earth's resources - whether a crisp packet or a cargo ship, a T-shirt or a wind turbine - has an inescapable impact on our future. In this book, the author uncovers the origins and the true cost of what we use.
