內(nèi)容簡介:We all know about the Earth's environmental crisis, but there is someone who can truly make a difference: you. If you text your friends or chat with them online, download music to your iPod, or toss bottles and papers into recycling bins, you're already more eco-savvy than you think. It's just as easy to do even more to help save the earth, and Generation Green shows you how. This book: Lays out the inside scoop onAthe biggest issues affecting our planet, such as global warming and overflowing landfills Offers dozens of tips on how to shop, dress, eat, and travel the green way Includes interviews with teens like you who are involved with fun, innovative green causes Shows that being environmentally conscious can be a natural part of your life -- and your generation's contribution to turning things around. It doesn't matter if you can't vote or drive. Your efforts -- big or small -- will contribute to saving the planet. It's time for all of us to take action. It's time to go green.
作者簡介:Living green has been a lifelong commitment and passion for Linda, whose mother dried and reused damp paper towels, sent her to school with organic wheat bread with the consistency of backyard mud pies, educated her about global warming, the dying oceans, and organic gardening, while redirecting the laundry outflow to their utility sink, where Mom became a one-woman bucket brigade nourishing their yard with washer/bath water. (When it rained, theirs was the only sudsy front yard in town!)
Linda began her writing career in the late 80’s, and wanted to shine a light on the causes she’d been taught were timely and of the utmost importance—saving the last stands of redwood groves, cleaning up the oceans, reducing CO2 emissions, and preserving the world’s diminishing top soils. But when she’d talk about these issues, people’s eyes would glaze over. Then Linda made the Celebrity Connection:
"I knew readers wanted success tips. If I interviewed celebrities about how they’d achieved wealth and fame, and overcome things like incest, bulimia, and drug abuse, I believed I could capture people’s attention. Maybe then, I’d be able to slip in information about saving the last gray whale birthing spot, or why it’s good business to clean up pollution.”
Be sure to visit Linda's latest Green News & Tips.
Fortunately, Linda had VIP access. As a professional dog walker and pet sitter, she hung out with celebrities in their bathrobes every day when she’d pick up Ricky & Romeo in Beverly Hills, or Chewy & Tasha in Hollywood for their daily jogs. “People drop their formalities and embrace you when their favorite family member—their pup—waits by the door for two hours with his leash in his mouth before you arrive. I was living a reality show without the cameras (before anyone knew what that would mean), and was privy to incredible stories of healing that were going mostly untold.” Linda saw the darker side of La La Land as well, taking care of Brandon Lee’s cats the night he was killed on the set of The Crow, and warning Kato Katlin (a friend of a client) not to take the guesthouse job with Nicole Simpson, saying that, “House sitters tend to get embroiled in the very real dramas of whomever owns the big house,” something she had experienced on a small scale.
