“Low Carbon Diet is a very effective program for helping people achieve real and lasting carbon reduction at the household level.

I recommend it to anyone who wants to do their part to reduce their carbon footprint.”
– Jenny Clad, Executive Director, Al Gore’s Climate Project

“Low Carbon Diet is a deeply transforming book. It is indispensable to anyone who wants to make a difference on climate change.”

The timing for a book offering day-to-day solutions to an overwhelming global problem couldn't be better."
