review 1: almost gave it a 5, would do 4 1/2 if possible...this book is much more user friendly for regular people than other things I've read on the topic. And though some of it is scary, it's real, and I am at the same time encouraged to see I've been taking some steps in the right direction.Our current lifestyle in the US and most of the "First World" is unsustainable. I am already seeing the signs of the increased difficulty of life that the author foresaw. If you are not filthy rich and want to learn to live more sustainably I highly recommend this book.
review 2: Wonderful book explaining what peak oil and climate change are and how we can rework our lives to cope and ultimately thrive. There are many concrete suggestions that urban apartment renters can follow to... more make our lives greener and more sustainable. The author meets us where we are, and makes the ultimate goal of living a family-centered life on the land (even if the land is a suburban yard w/garden) seem reasonably attainable. I love this book! less
