The Low Carbon Diet

"The Low Carbon Diet: How to Lose 5000 Pounds in 30 Days" is a fun, accessible, easy-to-use guide that will show users, step-by-step, how to dramatically reduce an individual's CO2 output in just a month's time.

Grounded in over two decades of environmental behavior change research, this illustrated workbook offers a list of eco-friendly actions and walks users through every step of the process, from calculating a personal current CO2 "footprint" to tracking the user's progress. Communities can also host a "Global Warming Café" workshops as part a larger "Cool Community Campaign Action Plan."
