by Alex Steffen (Author), Al Gore (Foreword), Bruce Sterling (Introduction)

Hardcover: 608 pages
Publisher: "Harry N. Abrams, Inc." (November 1, 2006)

This 600-page companion to the eco-friendly website of the same name (www.worldchanging.com) is chock-a-block with information about what is going on right now to create an environmentally and economically sustainable future-and what stands in opposition.
If Gore's film "An Inconvenient Truth" (also here is a book) moved you, then Steffen's "Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century" will move you to action.
This is a beautifully crafted book that should be cherished - so full of resourceful ideas from around the world on how to live a more eco-friendly, sustainable life - without having to turn your back on the comforts of the 21st century. It's the ultimate feel-good book that lets you know there's hope for the planet if you're willing to make changes here and there in your daily life that really aren't all that inconvenient. Don't worry - the book doesn't lecture. It just INSPIRES.
For those concerned with our planet and future, reading this book, and acting upon what you read, is as important as, and equal to, voting. As this book shows, each changed person, even a changed habit, can add up towards making a huge and crucial difference in our environment and future - towards a Changed World.
This book is full of information, facts most people never knew but need to learn. It covers so many topics from all over the world, it would interest anyone regardless of political affiliation or environmental commitment.
