Do you find yourself wondering what on Earth you can do about the very serious environmental challenges we face on our planet today? Do you worry there’s nothing any one person can do that will make a difference? Most people say that they would like to do something to make the world a better place, but they just don’t believe they have the time, energy, money, or power to do anything that will make a real difference. Are you willing to devote 20 minutes a week to find out?
Environmental activist Cheryl Leutjen has the planet’s back and is betting you do, too. Her powerful book of inspired ideas and eco-mindfulness calls upon us all to Love Earth Now. Love Earth Now invites us to explore our own thoughts and feelings, and to check in with internal guidance about the daily waste and negative environmental impacts we see on a daily basis. While most of us can’t stop the Arctic from melting, we can decide to make better choices — from less packaging on our purchases, to walking more and driving less, planting organic veggies in the front yard instead of a water-wasting lawn, and even to going as green as possible at work and at home.
Drawing from her experiences as an engineering geologist, environmental law attorney, small shop owner, and mindfulness practitioner, Cheryl Leutjen also reminds us about the importance of simplicity. Both helpful and hopeful, Love Earth Now is brimming with creative suggestions we can all try that will get us closer to a sustainable lifestyle, one day at a time.
