Hey Mr. Green - Bob Schildgen

Although there are still some people who believe that the global warming issue has been concocted by The Weather Channel to improve ratings or that environmentalism is the pagan religion of liberals, an increasing number of Americans are becoming environmentally conscious. Many would benefit from the easy-to-use guide to green living, Hey Mr Green.

Schildgen has taken the best questions sent by readers to his long-running column in Sierra magazine and distilled them into a helpful and practical compendium of things we can do to lessen our impact on the Earth. He divides the concise book into five areas: At Home, Food for Thought, Out and About, The Three Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle), and The Big Picture ("Thoughts on God, Government, and Other Dinner-Table Topics"). No dour, doom-saying enviro, he takes a humorous and irreverent approach to a serious subject. Recommended.
