Do you want to do more to help mitigate climate change, but don’t know where to start? Do you have the motivation to improve your environmentally-friendly behaviours and habits, but neither the time nor energy to research how to do this? Do you feel overwhelmed with the amount of information out there and yet don’t know what to believe? Then you’ve come to the right place! How to Do More for the Environment with a Little Help from Science is a handy guide aimed at identifying areas in your daily routine where positive changes can be made. In this scientifically-researched book, Luísa Borges summarises the most pertinent and up-to-date information relevant to your day-to-day life and provides evidence-based tips and hacks on how to make improvements to each one of them. These include how to adopt a healthy and planet-friendly diet, avoid food waste, decrease your consumption of clothes and energy, purge your home of synthetic cleaning products, and travel in an eco-friendlier manner. Progressive change to environmentally-friendly behaviours and making them a habit, will lower your carbon footprint. As a bonus, many changes can improve your health and may even save you money. Whether you’re just starting to make positive changes, or already living a sustainable lifestyle but want to further reduce your carbon footprint, this is the guide for you.
