Synopsis

There is a growing awareness that throwing out aerosols and turning off electric fires, although important, will count for nothing unless environmental problems are addressed as a truly global crisis. Conceived in the style of "The Green Consumer Guide", this book takes the view that, as long as Third World countries are crippled by debt, with their populations over-dependent on cash crops and plagued by poverty and disease, then environmental disasters and human tragedies can only escalate. It lays out some of the basic issues, shows how consumer decisions are directly linked to them and gives detailed information on a wide range of products, from clothing to tea and coffee, identifying those brands which the authors believe can directly benefit the Third World and those which should be avoided.
