Imagine It!: A Handbook for a Happier Planet by Laurie David, Laurie David, Heather Reisman, Heather Reisman
1.0
This book is... bad. Essentially, it's 200-and-something pages of Instagram infographics stacked together with information that you can find online for free (which was a little ironic considering one of the topics was paper waste). Most of the information was fairly common sense
Not all of it is, of course. Certain harmful chemicals in products is probably helpful to know for some, and I think the sections on how pollution disproportionately harms POC was also good (although that section was not written by either of the authors of the book). However, the majority of the advice in this book is shallow, including advice like turning off your taps when you don't need them and, I kid you not, "Google composting." If I can google this information, I dont know why this book needs to exist. Just use the internet and save your money.
