Earth Day, Every Day: “Green” Reading List from EWG
NOTE: Here is a short list of books to read provided by one of my favorite groups, The Environmental Working Group. They linked the books with Amazon,but buy them wherever you wish or pick them up at the library. This posting also obliterates the right hand side of my web page, but cannot be helped, since I lifted this directly from my email & I cannot alter it. ellensue
Dear Ellensue,
Now that spring is here, all I really want to do is head to the park with my son Cal and crack open a good book. So I teamed up with EWG staffers to come up with a list of some of our favorite books to help jumpstart a healthier – and greener – spring.
