    <body><![CDATA[This book is great.  It offers really practical ways to alter your life in a more 'green' direction.  The best part is, he's not some high and mighty Hollywood activist.

    <body><![CDATA[If you are at all inclined to be more environmentally responsible...this is the book to have. I love how he includes sections dealing with home, transportation, recycling, clothing and skin care etc...He has tips that are free, low cost, and a bit more of an investment (like solar panels).
