“Jam-packed with useful and information and helpful tips, How to Go (Almost) Zero Waste offers you the knowledge (not the guilt-trip) you need to bump your low-impact lifestyle up a notch, or several! This book is super user-friendly, with handy scales for how much expense, time, effort, and impact each suggestion involves. It is also well-researched, thorough, and thoughtful. I highly recommend this book, even if you are already well on your way to reducing your waste. It will inspire you to keep at it, and help you think of options you may not even have considered.” —Ruth Ann Smalley, PhD, Children's Book Writer, Educator, and Author of Sheila Says We're Weird
