Going Green focuses on the biggest environmental culprits of the American lifestyle--our diet, our housing, our clothing, and our transportation--and provides practical, effective steps we can all take to reduce our carbon footprint and live more sustainably. Comprehensive, yet written with the same approachable and empowering tone as Veggie Revolution (also by mother/daughter team Sally and Sara Kate, aka "Sadie," Kneidel) the book draws on personal interviews and real-life examples to demonstrate both the challenges and rewards of making environmentally responsible choices.
