This is a useful guide containing a list of fifty simple things which most people can do to 'help save the earth'. It is a small handbook of ecological wisdom. It takes as its motto, a statement of Edmund Burke ,"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." I learned a lot from the book and found many of its suggestions useful.
Here are a few of the suggestions:
1) Stop Junk Mail 2) Snip Six- pack rings 3) Use a clean detergent 4) Recharge your batteries 5) Stamp out Styrofoam 6) Recycle glass 7) Plant a tree 8) Carpool to work 9) Eat low on the food chain 10) Drive less 11) Use cloth diapers 12) Recycle old news 13) Air- power your shower 14) Install a graywater tank 15) Drive less
Not all the suggestions in this handbook will apply to everyone. But I am sure almost everyone who reads it will find a number of small things to do which will improve their own contribution to global ecological well- being.
