For young readers ages 8 to 12, an inspiring, lively guide to
sustainable living from YouTube star and zero-waste activist Rob
Greenfield.
Features kid-friendly information on the highly popular movement
towards zero-waste living, as well as information on the climate crisis
and solutions.
Rob Greenfield loves this planet, and he's willing to go to extremes to
show kids how our way of life is causing it harm. He's walked around New
York City dressed in his own garbage, cycled across the U.S. on a bamboo
bike (three times), and survived one year on food he foraged or grew
himself. For Rob, it's all worth it: he brings attention to important
topics like food and water waste; our dependency on fossil fuels; our
piles of stuff (and the energy required to produce it); and our
disconnection from community and the wider world.
In this uplifting book, Rob uses his own experiences--backed by solid
information and a ton of great ideas--to show kids that no one is too
young to make a difference, and no action is too small to make a start.
Rob will donate 100 percent of his proceeds from this book directly to
environmental nonprofits.
