Book excerpt: Minimalism meets DIY in an accessible guide to household waste reduction We all know how important it is to reduce our environmental footprint, but it can be daunting to know where to begin. Enter Kathryn Kellogg, who can fit all her trash from the past two years into a 16-ounce mason jar. How? She starts by saying “no” to straws and grocery bags, and “yes” to a reusable water bottle and compostable dish scrubbers. In 101 Ways to Go Zero Waste, Kellogg shares these tips and more, along with DIY recipes for beauty and home; advice for responsible consumption and making better choices for home goods, fashion, and the office; and even secrets for how to go waste free at the airport. “It’s not about perfection,” she says. “It’s about making better choices.” This is a practical, friendly blueprint of realistic lifestyle changes for anyone who wants to reduce their waste.

Book excerpt: This book will show you all the ways YOU can change how you travel to help save the planet. As we come out of lockdown, many of us are thinking about getting out of the house and going on holiday but it's never been more important to think about how we get from A to B. Packed with 101 tips and tricks to reducing your carbon footprint when you're on the go, this practical little book shows that everybody can do something to protect our environment. From how you travel to work, head to the shops, go on holiday and more, this book is a must-read for everyone. Why do we need to act now? Aviation alone accounts for at least 2% of global carbon emissions and an economy-class return flight from London to NYC emits the equivalent CO2 of 11% of the average annual emissions of someone in the UK. We can all make a change and contents includes: - EVERYDAY TRAVEL (including commuting, shopping and getting around) - PLANNING (how to plan an eco-friendly holiday) - PACKING (savvy tips to pack with the planet in mind) - TO FLY OR NOT TO FLY? (lots of alternatives to flying) - WHEN YOU GET THERE (how to be a green tourist) No change is too small to make a difference.

Download or read book Drawdown written by Paul Hawken and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • New York Times bestseller • The 100 most substantive solutions to reverse global warming, based on meticulous research by leading scientists and policymakers around the world “At this point in time, the Drawdown book is exactly what is needed; a credible, conservative solution-by-solution narrative that we can do it. Reading it is an effective inoculation against the widespread perception of doom that humanity cannot and will not solve the climate crisis. Reported by-effects include increased determination and a sense of grounded hope.” —Per Espen Stoknes, Author, What We Think About When We Try Not To Think About Global Warming “There’s been no real way for ordinary people to get an understanding of what they can do and what impact it can have. There remains no single, comprehensive, reliable compendium of carbon-reduction solutions across sectors. At least until now. . . . The public is hungry for this kind of practical wisdom.” —David Roberts, Vox “This is the ideal environmental sciences textbook—only it is too interesting and inspiring to be called a textbook.” —Peter Kareiva, Director of the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability, UCLA In the face of widespread fear and apathy, an international coalition of researchers, professionals, and scientists have come together to offer a set of realistic and bold solutions to climate change. One hundred techniques and practices are described here—some are well known; some you may have never heard of. They range from clean energy to educating girls in lower-income countries to land use practices that pull carbon out of the air. The solutions exist, are economically viable, and communities throughout the world are currently enacting them with skill and determination. If deployed collectively on a global scale over the next thirty years, they represent a credible path forward, not just to slow the earth’s warming but to reach drawdown, that point in time when greenhouse gases in the atmosphere peak and begin to decline. These measures promise cascading benefits to human health, security, prosperity, and well-being—giving us every reason to see this planetary crisis as an opportunity to create a just and livable world.

Book excerpt: If you want to learn how to recycle, eliminate disposables, reduce waste & pollution, conserve resources, save energy, and protect the environment, then check out HowExpert Guide to Recycling. Have you ever been gaslighted? You know, grossly misled to believe something for the benefit of someone else? Unfortunately, we've all been victims of this for decades by big corporations, especially the oil industry. They have spent billions to convince us that climate change is our fault. That if we dispose of our trash the right way and lower our carbon footprint, we wouldn't have the environmental problems we are now facing. Nothing could be further from the truth. This guide will show how we've been misled to believe this narrative in order to protect corporate profits and how changing our disposable habits, and fighting misinformation is the best thing we can do to beat climate change. Corporations have lied to keep us buying their products and distracted from the fact that waste and emissions are caused by how they do business. - Single-use plastics are a big money-maker for the fossil fuel industry. - They created the triangle symbol to make us think plastics will recycle, even though that can't easily be done. - Manufacturers choose not to invest in recycled packaging and materials. - Virgin materials mined from Earth are cheaper and often subsidized. - Technology exists to eliminate most of the greenhouse gas emissions they cause. - It's time to fight for the truth and take matters into our own hands. What we buy and how it's made affects how well "reduce, reuse, and recycle" works. Using the power of our voices and wallets, we can make corporations change how they do business. - They answer to us, the people who buy their products and invest in their stock. - We can insist they take responsibility for the damage they cause. - We have the power to fight climate change at home and in our cities. - I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to leave the health and well-being of my family in the hands of people who I hope will figure this mess out. - We all need to change for the better of our planet and our lives. - There are alternatives to buying disposable goods and packaging. - Buy durable goods and reusable packaging to save money and the planet. - Reduce and reuse packaging. First, eliminate plastic shopping bags. - We can do things differently to change our eating and buying habits. - A lot of trash comes with convenience dining, like packaged and fast foods. - Buying used products reduces wasted energy, materials, and water. - It's time we use our buying power and our votes to change for the better. - Waste of anything - food, energy, goods - needs to be eliminated. - Elect representatives who put people before corporations. - Your voice can create change. Check out HowExpert Guide to Recycling to learn how to recycle, eliminate disposables, reduce waste & pollution, conserve resources, save energy, and protect the environment.

Without changing your politics or completely disrupting your routine, you can reduce your impact on the planet by rethinking how you cook, shop, and consume food.

Download or read book Carbon Footprints as Cultural-Ecological Metaphors written by Anita Girvan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through an examination of carbon footprint metaphors, this books demonstrates the ways in which climate change and other ecological issues are culturally and materially constituted through metaphor. The carbon footprint metaphor has achieved a ubiquitous presence in Anglo-North American public contexts since the turn of the millennium, yet this metaphor remains under-examined as a crucial mediator of political responses to the urgent crisis of climate change. Existing books and articles on the carbon footprint typically treat this metaphor as a quantifying metric, with little attention to the shifting mediations and practices of the carbon footprint as a metaphor. This gap echoes a wider gap in understanding metaphors as key figures in mediating more-than-human relations at a time when such relations profoundly matter. As a timely intervention, this book addresses this gap by using insights from environmental humanities and political ecology to discuss carbon footprint metaphors in popular and public texts. This book will be of great interest to researchers and students of environmental humanities, political ecology, environmental communication, and metaphor studies.
