The Truth About Going Green : The Surprising Science of What Actually Helps the Planet
Shelie Miller
A myth-busting, science-based guide to reducing your environmental impact. With so much conflicting sustainability advice, how can we tell which choices actually help the planet—and which ones simply make us feel like they do? In The Truth About Going Green, sustainability scientist Shelie Miller debunks some of the most persistent environmental myths and reveals which personal actions make the greatest difference. Moving beyond the idea that greener living begins and ends with trash, plastic, and recycling, she focuses on the environmental outcomes we care about most: a stable climate, clean air, safe water, and healthier communities.
Grounded in the latest science, this practical and refreshingly realistic guide offers a flexible “Good, Better, Best” framework for reducing your environmental footprint in ways that fit your life and priorities. Along the way, Miller answers common questions about meat, electric vehicles, single-use products, recycling, and more—replacing guilt, confusion, and greenwashing with clear, actionable advice. The Truth About Going Green empowers readers to stop sweating the small stuff, focus on what works, and discover a more effective—and more hopeful—way to help the planet.
