We all know that the routine decisions that shape our days (what to have for dinner, where to shop, how to get to work) collectively can have a big effect on global warming … but which lifestyle changes make the biggest difference to the climate? Jeff Deyette, senior energy analyst for the Union of Concerned Scientists’ Clean Energy program and author of the science-based guide Cooler Smarter, shows the most effective ways to cut our own global-warming emissions by 20 percent or more—and explains why each individual contribution is so vital. Presented as part of the From Island Press series by Town Hall and Island Press through the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, in association with IslandWood and Elliott Bay Book Company. Series media sponsorship provided by PubliCola. Series supported by The Boeing Company, the RealNetworks Foundation, and the True/Brown Foundation.
