Confessions of an Eco-Shopper by Kate Lock

'Engagingly honest...this is an absolutely brilliant book, whose message is completely clear.' EVENING STANDARD Are muddy carrots worth the hassle? Can a natural deodorant survive a salsa class? Will clothes swapping ever replace clothes shopping? Two years ago Kate Lock set herself a series of eco-challenges to find out the answers to these questions and many more. From kicking her Tesco habit to composting her kitchen waste, Kate's confessions are witty, down-to-earth and often surprising. An inspirational and practical guide for anyone wanting the inside story on green living.
'One of the most readable green guides I've seen' -- The Bookseller 20080502 'Engagingly honest.. she's amusing, too ... this is an absolutely brilliant book, whose message is completely clear.' -- Evening Standard 20080728 'If you think your habits are not worth changing because they will make no difference to the world, then read this book... [Kate] explains why with good humour and style' -- Evening Standard, Homes and Property 20080820
