Reviews

[Rika Mari]

This book is an inspiration and a godsend in a world where everything seems to be going wrong. To hear the good news on the big topics, everything from sustainable forestry, agriculture, energy, climate change, water, and the saving of ecosystems, is a much needed relief and wonder. I think a lot of people feel overwhelmed by the problems at hand, and though we try to make a difference, it never feels like it's enough. This book will inspire us to take the next step, to find our place in the help we want to bring, because the solutions aren't lacking, they abound in these pages, and reading it will make you want to take that extra step and do a little more for our big blue home. The portraits of the people and organizations that are changing the world right now are nothing short of inspiring. Thank you David and Holly for this wonderful collection of stories and facts that uplift. I recommend this book to EVERYONE.

It does give you what you ask for: David Suzuki's personal opinions on what good news there is about Environmental initiatives. It's a very hopeful and cool list of things people are doing to help the environment.
