About this book     Check availability
If you ever wanted a book to back you up when you ask your indecisive kids not to stand in front of an open refrigerator, this is it. Chock full of great facts that not only can be used to write an impressive report; it also gives you practical ideas for going green. This is one of six books in a series that includes information for reducing your carbon footprint while shopping, at home, at school, on vacation, and moving from place to place. In the back of each book is a section with even more information. I checked out their website and it even showed me where to buy my groceries from local harvests! DW
