Reviews for Sustainable Practices: Your Handbook for Effective Action

This handbook breaks down a worldwide problem that often feels overwhelming into individual actions that make a difference. It shows us how to shape our own lives and steer our communities in a healthier, cleaner direction. Kudos to Fred for gathering so much information into a single, usable guidebook.
