My thanks to the publisher for the ARC via Netgalley.

This is quite the informative book and it covers a variety of topics from fossil fuels to plastic to smartphones, following the thread of how caring for the environment can or should be intertwined with the economy. I found it very educational, quoted many of the facts as I was learning them and overall a great "breadth" style book on environmentalism.

There are some editing oversights and it does not cite sources, in the version I got. The book reads more like an essay or dissertation, and the author overuses certain pet words or phrases throughout that get repetitive. I would still highly recommend it for the learning value and clear research put into preparing this lens.

I enjoy David's reports on the economy on TV and am of the view she should be given a broader platform and visibility. This book is timely, enlightening and important about the small changes individuals can make to help the environment and climate change. I did feel it was that it was too individual focused and could have had a chapter on corporate responsibility and, in particular, companies that engage in 'green-washing' without any substantive corporate change and how that interfaces with choices at the individual consumer level.
