Little Things Add Up

If you are looking for a common sense approach to green things that you can do to make a difference, this book is a good start. The bonus is things that you can do can and will save you money in the long run. Some of the suggestions are not possible for many people (give up your car for instance) but there are definitely things that all of us can do to make a big difference and put a few bucks in our pocket too. Check it out; highly recommended.

Brilliant!

This book is well written, well designed and very easy to read. It contains great tips for living green, and saving money in the process. It also lists ways of investing in green funds.

I've been researching this topic for the last year and I find that the resources and facts from this book are more accurate than the ones in other "green books".

Go Green and Prosper

In Go Green, Live Rich, David Bach and Hillary Rosner show us how acting in an environmentally responsible way can actually make us a lot of money and make us healthier at the same time.

Bach writes: "Going green is the most important issue that will shape our future."

By using less resources, buying less stuff, making our homes and transportation more energy efficient, we absolutely save money. The brilliance is taking that money and investing it.

He writes: It's not what you earn that makes you rich or poor; it is what you spend." I wholeheartedly agree with this assessment and it sums up what I like so much about this book. Stop buying all that stuff and invest or contribute to green causes, instead.

Bach provides dollar amounts for each of the 50 ways to go green:
* Improve fuel efficiency: $884
* Seal leaks in home: $129
* Lower thermostat: $85
* Brownbag lunch: $ 1560
* Total savings: $3758
Invest that savings (preferably in green businesses) for 30 years: $678,146

There are 50 tips for greening your life, including: build green, bring your bags, clean green and take a volunteer vacation.

Bach writes:"I believe green investing will be to the 21st century what technology was the the 20th century," and encourages readers to invest in green opportunities, businesses and services that will help the environment.

Bach also encourages the reader to contribute to green causes.

Go Green Live Rich is a starting point for living a green lifestyle, but in no way is it comprehensive. Bach and Rosner do a great job in proving that green doesn't have to be expensive, however. There are lots of other books out there with more information on green living. Here are a few of my favorites:Green, Greener, Greenest: A Practical Guide to Making Eco-Smart Choices a Part of Your Life, Big Green Purse: Use Your Spending Power to Create a Cleaner, Greener World and Harmonious Environment: Beautify, Detoxify and Energize Your Life, Your Home and Your Planet.

Interesting tips

I thought this audio was good, but I felt like they tried to rush so many ideas or tips that it sounded like the people speaking on the audio had the tape on fast forward.

Pretty Good

This work by Mr Bach continues to be consistant in quality. Although presented differently (i.e. format), he gives good ideas, excellent points and things to ponder. I would suggest this to anyone who would like to integrate being environmentally aware into their financial structure.
