A Good Life: The Guide To Ethical Living

A Good Life: The Guide To Ethical Living by Leo Hickman

Have you ever tried asking yourself these questions - Is it ever acceptable to fly?
What are my household cleaners doing to my family's health?
Who most deserves my charitable donations?
Will offsetting my carbon emissions make a difference?
More and more of us want to try to do the right thing. We know that somehow we must reduce our demands on the planet's resources but ethical living is about more than environmental concerns. It is also about achieving positive change by improving our relationships with those around us - be it our friends, family or neighbours, or those we never even met but who make the products we buy.
Leo Hickman's guide to the ethics of everyday life, with its invaluable directory, has already established itself as a bestselling resource for the twenty-first century. Now updated and expanded, it is quite simply a must-have book for all.

Synopsis of a Good Life, Guide to Ethical Living

Do you want to know the difference between organic, fair trade and locally grown food - and crucially, which you should buy? Do you want to make your home a toxin-free zone? Do you want to save energy and money at the same time? Fully illustrated (using vegetable inks on FSC paper) and with 'explainers' about key issues; 'dilemma' boxes and a directory of endorsed contacts and suppliers, A Good Life shows you how to make choices that will benefit you, your family , your community and the whole planet.

Reviews

An invaluable resource. The tone is just right - balanced and informative rather than didactic - and the no-nonsense advice is plentiful. It is also strikingly well designed, with excellent pictures. - House & Garden, House & Garden
