Description

The high-consumption American way of life create enormous damage to the Earth's fragile ecosystem. Focusing on seven everyday things - the bicycle, the condom, the ceiling fan, the clothesline, pad thai, the public library and the ladybug - author John Ryan demonstrates how taking surprisingly simple steps can lead to a dramatically more sustainable future for our crowded and complex planet.
