Some of this information was really helpful. I didn't really find the author's humor that funny, and it became slightly irritating.

Great approachable about climate change and environmental impact. Definitely will be recommending to friends.

While it's nice to read a book that hits the major environmental issues in an easy-to-read way without sacrificing science, all the cheeky or snarky parenthetical comments had my eyes rolling before I even got to the second section of the book. I appreciated learning more about the environmental impacts/costs of the Internet/technology and fashion, but I was pretty familiar with the rest of the information in the book, especially concerning food. Decent read if you're totally not up to speed on environmental issues and have a high tolerance for memes and super trendy cultural references -- otherwise, there are better books out there.

Highly recommend. This book goes over how one can think about personal choices and climate change, including steps to take to reduce a person's impact on the environment. The take-away is brutally clear -- the most effective thing any of us can do is vote for policies that address climate change.

Interesting. Thought provoking.
Uninspiring, however.
It reads like: Apples are good except that they might not be if the traveled to you by carbon-emitting trucks and if they were grown with diesel-powered tractors or if the very soil they were grown on was once Native American land.
These things are all problematic of their own accord, but the lasting impression is hopelessness.
