Do my shopping and eating habits really affect the health of the planet? What is biodiversity and what can I do to support it? Can I conserve energy around the home and save money at the same time? This book answers such questions. It reveals why we should, and how we can, make better and more sustainable use of the world's finite resources.

"1001 Ways You Can Save the Planet" banishes piety and offers a positive and uplifting treasure trove of environmental advice, from the benefits of becoming a beekeeper to simple but easily overlooked measures such as re-using your birthday candles, avoiding stand-by mode on electrical appliances, drinking water from the main supply rather than bottled mineral water, skipping the weekend shave and putting a brick in the bathroom cistern. Fascinating throughout, this book reveals why we should, and how we can, make better and more sustainable use of the world's finite resources.
