Beschreibung

An inspiring and approachable tip-filled guide to changing your habits, living more sustainably, and taking action, by Greenpeace ambassador Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter movies)
Go Gently is a guide for sustainability at home that offers simple, tangible steps toward reducing our environmental impact by looking at what we consume and the waste we create, as well as how to take action for environmental change. The title reflects Bonnie Wright’s belief that the best way to change our planet and ourselves is through a gentle approach, rather than a judgmental one. This is a book of do’s rather than don’ts. It’s also an invitation to Wright’s followers to join her on this journey to sustainability.
Going through every room in her home, Wright helps us assess which products are sustainable, and alternatives for those that are not. She shares recipes to avoid waste, homemade self-care products to avoid packaging, small space-friendly gardening ideas, and a template for creating your own compost system. Finally, to sustain yourself, there are exercises and meditation prompts to keep you energized, plus info on how to get involved in community and organizations.

With the beginning of the pandemic and the first lockdowns, I became more and more aware of the climate crisis and thus interested on how I can contribute towards more sustainability. When I heard that Bonnie Wright was releasing a book on the matter, I was very much looking forward to read it and learn more. I already got very much engaged with the Go Gently community and YouTube and found a lot of interesting new aspects top consider and try out. This book lived up to its promises. I loved the mixture of information, actionable steps and DIYs and I am very excited to try a lot of them out in the future. This book truly encourages you to either start your journey within the climate movement or continue on the one you are already on. I would very much recommend this to everyone!

Nicely written and encouraging to take any action, however small. Very US-centered though, as well as, while pointing out social inequality, it focuses on steps that already need huge privileges to even be considered an option (or are at all relevant).
