The Green Journal is a collaboration of essays and tips written by a team of experts from Phipps and provides insight and advice about pursuing a greener lifestyle. This easy-access idea book covers a dozen areas of green living and offers ways to get started, with ideas for easily implemented projects both on small and large scales. The Journal also contains pages where the reader can enter his or her own notes and discoveries as they unfold.

Along with six dozen eco-tips, a dozen essays guide readers through various subjects about going green such as transportation, gardening, going green at work, and voting with your dollars.

The Green journal is filled with practical ways that each of us can make a difference in our choices so that we are actively playing a part in supporting the health of our environment and ourselves. I found that after reading it I began thinking in new ways about many daily activities. This attractive Journal is an excellent companion for greener living.

This extraordinary “environmental diary” provides a mechanism whereby anyone can make small changes or small contributions on a month by month basis that eventually add up to a major result in reducing our impacts on the environment. Every home and workplace should have and use this book. This is one of the few products that can realistically make happen the common expression, “think globally, act locally.”
