Based on TV3's hit new series 'Wa$ted', this book is jam-packed full of tips and information on how to save money while saving the planet. In the same up-beat, lively way as the TV show, this book never preaches and is always positive and helpful. Divided into Rubbish, Power, Water and Fuel, each part begins by helping you audit your own household use. It then goes into detail on everything from worm farms to what to do with big purchase packaging to nappies to double glazing to towel rails to rainwater butts to tuning your car to food miles. It's good to look at, easy to read and you'll find yourself making all sorts of changes to reduce your carbon footprint. First published August 2007.
