New for 2008, a calendar that makes living green hip, easy, and fun—a full year of doable daily tips for walking more softly on the planet. Tips like forgoing energy-sucking air purifiers for a few air-filtering houseplants. Like drinking organic beer—better for you and the earth. Like conserving water while brushing your teeth (if only 10,000 people turned off the spigot every day for a year, we'd save enough water to grow wheat for 160,000 loaves of bread). Written with cheekiness and wit, it's a calendar that makes it simple to make a difference.
