For young readers ages 8 to 12, an inspiring, lively guide to sustainable living from environmental activist Robin Greenfield. Features kid-friendly information on the highly popular movement towards zero-waste living, as well as information on the climate crisis and solutions. Robin Greenfield loves this planet, and he’s willing to go to extremes to show kids […]

You want to do something for the planet, but what? Change a light bulb, install a low-flow faucet, eat organic? How about ride 4,700 miles across the United States on a bamboo bicycle, using only water from natural sources, avoiding fossil fuels almost completely, supplying your few electrical needs with solar power and creating nearly zero waste?

Sound crazy? Maybe. But not if you’re Robin Greenfield. Then it sounds like a pretty amazing way to bring your message to as many people as possible, and to have a great time doing it. Dude Making a Difference is Robin’s first-person account of his incredible adventure in radical sustainability.

Il aurait pu être millionnaire. Il a choisi de vivre en respectant la nature et tous les êtres vivants, donnant ses gains à des ONG et ne gardant que le strict minimum pour faire de sa vie son message. Voici le monde selon Robin Greenfield.

Ce livre est le récit de la première des aventures écologiques de Robin Greenfield : traverser les Etats-Unis sur un vélo en bambou sans jamais se connecter aux réseaux d’électricité ou de distribution d’eau, en mangeant bio et local, quasiment zéro déchets, et en comptant, pour subvenir au reste de ses besoins, sur la Nature et… les poubelles.
Plus qu’un récit de voyage, ce livre est aussi une réflexion profonde sur la place de l’homme dans son environnement, et la philosophie d’un humaniste qui a décidé d’être heureux, simplement, grâce à la Nature.

Ten years ago, Robin Greenfield woke up to the destruction caused by the industrial food system and Big Ag. Since then he has been deeply exploring food sovereignty—often through immersive activism—which led to his most recent quest: could he step outside of the food system and grow and forage 100% of his food?

In Food Freedom, he shares his adventures of living without grocery stores or restaurants. Nothing packaged, processed, or shipped—not even multi-vitamins, supplements, or spices. Within Orlando, Florida, he turned lawns into abundant gardens, grew over 100 species of food, and foraged over 200.

Inspired by internationally acclaimed environmental activist Robin Greenfield, Zero Waste Kids is a solutions-oriented book that teaches through projects and activities how to reduce, reuse, and recycle at home, at school, and in the community.
Leading by example, the author is donating all of his proceeds from the book to environmental nonprofit organizations. Zero Waste Kids is every kid’s go-to guide for making a difference.
