| Summary |
"There is a new way to be cool. It's not about flaunting the latest fashion or driving the flashiest car. Just the opposite. The new cool is minimalism, and it's about using less, minimizing harm to the environment, and owning only items that you truly need."--Publisher.
The planet is drowning in garbage, and fossil fuels are contributing to climate change. Minimalism is all about using less, minimizing harm to the environment, and owning only items that you truly need. McGraw explains how to recycle, upcycle, compost and other Earth-friendly practices. She shows that you can live simply, and still be stylish and have healthy relationships. -- adapted from jacket
