The Australian Green Consumer Guide
Sort the green from the green-wash

At a time when every second ad or product you come across claims to be environmentally-friendly, there has never been a greater need for an Australian green consumer guide to help people make informed choices about the products they buy. Environmentalist, author and TV presenter Tanya Ha responds to this need, and to the shift in public debate about climate change toward actively seeking solutions, with this practical guide that encourages consumers to become informed, get involved and to vote with their dollar.

Packed with answers - practical tips and advice to help the reader make a real difference in their own lives - The Australian Green Consumer Guide is an essential, non-judgemental guide to making more ecologically sound consumer choices. If you are one of the many Australians concerned about the environmental impacts of your decisions as a consumer, this is the guide for you. It includes information on products across a broad range of categories, including:

- Food
- Fashion
- Cars
- Cleaning
- Cosmetics
- Paper products
- Nappies
- Appliances
- Gardening
- DIY and home energy

Extensively indexed, and with loads of useful contacts, it will not only help you to reduce the size of your ecological footprint, cutting your contribution to climate change, but also identify products that are better for your health, and finally save money.
