Recycle: The Essential Guide is the indispensable handbook to recycling
today. With vibrant visuals and a clear, accessible layout, the book is
an invaluable resource that tackles everything from the urgency of
resource depletion on a global scale to what the individual reader can
do to reduce waste in their own home.
Beginning with a witty, thought
provoking introduction by renowned Observer journalist, Lucy Siegle,
Recycle includes detailed sections on recyclable materials and what the
reader can do to facilitate the recycling process. It covers a range of
materials, with an in-depth explanation of each; Paper, Plastic, Metal,
Glass, Household Waste and Compost.
Case studies from around the
world pay tribute to exceptionally successful or innovative approaches
to recycling. A consumer directory shows that ethical living and style
are not necessarily mutually exclusive. And a comprehensive
international directory points readers in the direction of organisations
and companies who can offer advice and solutions to any recycling query
they may have.
Recycle is a call to action and shows readers how to
take a practical role in relation to current ecological issues. An
essential for all those who want to take that journey but aren't sure
where to start.
