Human influence on the planet and its functioning is widespread and spreading, such that no biome of the Earth's surface is free from interactions with humanity. Plastic debris is a pervasive anthropogenic contaminant, identified in marine ecosystems across the globe, and recognized as a serious global environmental concern. <i>Life Without Plastic</i> provides a helpful guide to encourage those around us to reduce waste and plastic consumption. Indeed, becoming a plastic-free hero capable of fitting an entire year's worth of rubbish into a jar certainly doesn't happen overnight! This book provides thoughtful information to help families plan ahead and change one step at a time--from lunch packing gear to sports equipment."--C�line Jennison, co-founder, Plastic Tides</p><p>"Forget the title! You don't have to be seeking a life without plastic to get a lot out of this book. It's a fantastic resource for anyone concerned about the overwhelming place plastic holds in modern life."--Susan Freinkel, author, <i>Plastic: A Toxic Love Story</i><br><i></i><br><i></i>"For seven years I've been on a journey to live close to zero waste and to reduce the amount of plastic in my life, especially single use, disposable plastic. It is a challenge to keep up these practices indefinitely, especially in a society so immersed in plastic and the throw-away lifestyle. Over the last few years plastic has managed to sneak back into my life in ways that I had already rid myself of it.<br>This book, <i>Life Without Plastic</i>, has re-invigorated my desire to live a life without plastic. Plus, it has given me a deeper understanding of exactly what plastic is, the many types of plastic, the human harm it can cause and the impact it has on our world. After finishing just the first chapter I was already going through all of my stuff and sifting out the plastic that had creeped back into my life and wasn't serving me well!<br>The book is written in a manner that can be read by someone fully immersed in the plastic life that wants to make their first change, or by someone like myself who is well on their way to a life without plastic, or anywhere in between. It is non-preaching, non-judgmental, meets us all where we are, and guides us into a happier, healthier and more sustainable life without plastic."<br>- Rob Greenfield, adventurer, activist, humanitarian and author of <i>Dude Making a Difference</i></p>
