What I liked: There were a few questions answered in here that I’d wondered myself—such as how to compost if you live in an apartment, and whether it really uses up more energy to turn on a CFL bulb every time you need it or to just leave it on, etc.
What I didn’t like: A lot of the running conversations in this book left me feeling like its only real purpose was to charge up readers with ammunition to be eco-consciouser-than-thou.
What I learned: People really sweat the small stuff.
