What One Person Can Do cover

Many things feel out of our control. Costs are rising, countries are at war, and big corporations are delaying our transition to a sustainable future. In the chaos of our world, the climate crisis can seem yet another big problem that leaves us feeling powerless.

But scientist Charlie Gardner offers a clear roadmap out of our environmental mess. We know what needs to be done; now we need to follow the steps. So where should we focus our efforts? And how can we get up to speed?
Packed with the latest research, this book is an actionable guide for creating a better future. Ditching the typical advice of turning the lights off or carrying a reuseable cup, these steps will energize and inspire you to make real change happen - from transforming your workplace to building allies in your community.

Moving from carbon footprints to active handprints, this book removes personal guilt and offers us a new vision for the future.
