As interest in living a sustainable life has exploded, so
has the green marketplace. It has become difficult to
distinguish companies that provide truly eco-friendly
products and services from those that "greenwash." Now, from
the company that founded Organic Gardening when
eating close to the land was far from mainstream and
published Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, comes this
timely guide to all things green. Modeled on the classic
Whole Earth Catalog, the touchstone for an earlier
generation, Whole Green Earth Catalog is poised to
become the bible of green living for the 68 million
Americans—about one-third of U.S. adults—who now take
environmental and social issues into account when they make
purchases. Leading experts in every imaginable category—from
home furnishings and appliances to clothing and children's
toys, from pets and beauty products to travel and
investing—share their authoritative tips, reviews, and
advice. Whole Green Earth Catalog provides succinct
answers to such questions as: Can one go green and save
money? Can people reduce their carbon footprint if they are
business travelers? Is there an environmentally friendly
disposable diaper? Beautifully packaged with more than 1,000
photographs and illustrations, and manufactured with 100
percent post-consumer waste materials, this volume is the
perfect gift for those who care about the future of the planet.
