Product Description
Book Description
A book for the urban environmentalist that delivers good news: saving the planet is easier than you think.
Author Tanya Ha defines "Greeniology" as the art and science of greener living. Explaining that "Greeniology begins at home," Ha shows, step-by-step, how we can lessen our impact on the earth's environment-without cramping our lifestyle. From basic ways to reduce our usage of power and water to greener replacements for chemicals and pesticides at home and at work, Ha offers a smorgasbord of green-living alternatives specific to Canada, interesting facts, money-saving tips, and loads of practical advice for the beginner greenie and the eco-enthusiast alike. Greeniology is a must for anyone who cares about our planet but has never had enough time to make a difference.

Going green with syle!, Mar 26 2005
By Dorian Peters - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Greeniology: How to Live Well, Be Green and Make a Difference (Paperback)
Greeniology is the most fun and valuable book I've purchased in years. It's stock full of fantastic tips on easy ways to a greener lifestsyle -- it's elgantly designed and loads of fun to read. Tanya Ha takes you through every room in the house, from the greener bedroom and kitchen to the green office and garden. And this isn't just the same old, how to save water tips list - this guide is truly comprehensive, creative, effective and totally practical. So far, Tanya's adivce has made my little house warmer in winter, cooler in summer, cleaner and healthier. Plus, I've cut down, not only on energy consumption, but made serious reductions in costs and chemicals too (she's even got me and my friends making our own lavendar scented cleanser). I've also consulted the guide when it's come to buying appliances, or deciding between products. I pick it up again and again, always amazed at the new ways it proves invaluable. Grab a copy, you won't be dissapointed.
