Reducing your carbon emissions in an economic down-turn can be
challenging, but saving the planet doesn't have to cost you more.
Tough economic times need not relegate concerns for the planet to
the back burner. The author is an environmental economist trying to
live a low-carbon life in London. He worked for 15 years in the
UK's Office of Climate Change, the Prime Minister's Strategy Unit
and the Department of the Environment. So far so good. But he has
kids. A family to visit in India. A hectic job. In distilling and
building on his own experience of trying to live a low carbon life,
he helps us navigate the choices that confront us all - families,
singletons, pensioners - when making decisions about what to eat,
what to buy, how to travel and how to keep warm in the era of
climate change and economic turmoil. He works out the sums and lets
us know which choices will make the biggest difference, and which
are false savings. His book is an irreverent but seriously rigorous
reference guide to low-cost, low-carbon living for everyone - in
any location - in tough times. It's brimming with up-to-date
information on current and future technologies, tips and ideas for
every budget on how to spend the least for the biggest carbon
reduction gain and insight from the experiences of people trying to
live low-carbon lives.
