Author, Josh Dorfman decided to write a book about me (because I’m just that fabulous), can you believe it? Yea right! What he really did is write a book about the majority of us! The Lazy Environmentalist On A Budget is a savvy read, helping “green” or “trying to go green” families on a budget take that next step in green living.
In the past year we have tried to flip our lives into green mode. That means using reusable shopping bags (we love Joey Totes), eco-friendly cleaning products, laundry detergents, shampoos, etc. We turn the water off while brushing our teeth, we recycle (yay, that took me awhile to get), we use eco-friendly diaper options and we are now in the process of buying only Organic, fair trade clothing, linens and furniture (can you believe that one?).
Isn’t that expensive? Well NO, thanks to Josh Dorfman and the Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget, we can effortlessly save the planet while keeping some extra cash in our pocket. This new book plays off of author, Josh Dorfman’s first book, The Lazy Environmentalist. After completing his first book, he found that not many people he knew were “going green” and so he began to ask why. Time and time again, he heard the same answer: We can’t find green options and when we do, their expensive! So Josh set out on a mission to prove everyone wrong and boy did he!
The Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget not only gives you a ridiculous amount of resources (stores, companies, websites), but does it with budget savvy families in mind. The book really covers it all, from eco-friendly diapers & parenting to getting paid to recycle, The Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget has you covered and with little investment. Below are just a few ideas of what you’ll find in the book:
1. Did you know you can rent textbooks for school at 80% less than buying them…yup! just visit chegg.com and check it out.
2. Zwaggle.com is a place where parents hang and trade their baby items..no money is exchanged other than shipping costs!
3. Want to go eco-friendly with your wardrobe but budget just won’t allow? Just visit swapstyle.com and shop in other people’s closets and pick only the items you HAVE to have. Then make a swap and pay only for shipping.
These are just a few of the hundreds of resources that The Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget gives to it’s readers. I enjoyed it so much, that I finished the book in two sittings. This is one of the best reads that I have experienced in years and at only $14.95, it’s price point is set with it’s readers in mind. So, are you a Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget?
