In celebration of our planet …
I’m posting this link to the Earth Day Network, a wonderful place to learn about Earth Day and ways you can support its mission to “grow and diversify the environmental movement worldwide, and to mobilize it as the most effective vehicle for promoting a healthy, sustainable planet.”
And I am recomminding THE CONSUMER’S GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL CHOICES, by Michael Brower and Warren Leon. This “practical advice from the Union of Concerned Scientists” is easy to read and does the near-impossible: sorts through the myriad of ways we are told we can save the planet and shows you which will really shrink your ecological footprint.
And for young readers I am re-recommending TRASH ACTION: A FRESH LOOK AT GARBAGE, by Anne Love and Jane Drake.
Happy Earth Day!
