Josh Dorfmanβs perspective is a leading voice for anyone involved in new consumer-based environmentalism.ββTom Arnold, TerraPass We canβt all camp out in old-growth forests, lying down in front of the bulldozers. And itβs not only that weβre too busy: Some of us just donβt want our fabulous threads to get caked with mud. But that doesnβt mean we donβt care passionately about the environment. Luckily, the days when becoming environmentally aware entailed eating bread that tasted like dirt, wearing clothes that looked like frayed burlap sacks, and spending summer vacations assailing whaling ships with Greenpeace are passing away. It is now perfectly possible (and increasingly easy) to be well fed, well coiffed, well dressed, and well traveled while remaining deeply committed to an ecologically sustainable lifestyle. In The Lazy Environmentalist, Josh Dorfmanβhost of the Sirius Satellite Radio program of the same nameβprovides comprehensive guidance to fashion-forward consumers who are as concerned about the long-term health of our planet as they are about the design of their bathroom fixtures. Covering topics that range from clothing to electronic gadgetry, home decor to recreation, and gardening to financial investment, Dorfman lets us know which trends to watch and which eco-conscious productsβcars, toothbrushes, cell phones, pet accessoriesβto buy. Green, it turns out, can be an extremely stylish color.
