Description

Living without fossil fuels can be a more fulfilling way to live. Yet as we consume ever more in pursuit of happiness, global warming worsens.

The author, a climate scientist and suburban father, embarked on a journey to change his life and the world by making simple changes such as bicycling, growing food, meditating, and reducing his energy use. He slashed his climate impact to under a tenth of the US average and became happier in the process.

This book explores the connections between our individual daily actions and our collective predicament, merging science, spirituality, and practical action to develop a satisfying response to global warming.
