Customer Reviews

Referencing this book since 1988

I first purchased this book in 1988 and I continuously reference it. At this point I should have it memorized! A consumer guide that makes being green easier to accomplish. Chock full of useful information, recipes for homemade cleaning products, how to shop green and much more. This book breaks down the chemical make-up of many products and explains the dangers of using these products in the home. Contents are: automobiles, food and groceries, garden and pet supplies, green gifts, home energy and furnishings, personal care products, green travel, how to get involved. Resource lists for shopping and references. Being that I have the first edition, I'm sure some of this info has changed but I'm now purchasing this updated version. I highly recommend this book.
