What Does It Mean to Be Green? by Chris Blair

Being green means.
Turning off the water while you brush your teeth
Only turning on the lights when you need them
Picking up trash that isn't yours

In this empowering book, a young boy and girl discover amazing facts (like how our food travels an average of 1,500 miles to be on our plate ) and explore all the different ways they--and we--can help protect the Earth's most precious resources to save the planet and live green lifestyles.
