Sustainable Supply also carries a book about water conservation. The book provides 100 simple and effective tips for saving water, inside and outdoors of your home or business. Packed with practical ideas for your kitchen, bath, landscaping, and water using chores. From simple things like having a shower instead of a bath, to more drastic measures like installing a rainwater harvesting system; If each one of us does just one of them, we can help reduce the likelihood of water shortages both now and in the future.
There is even a book on composting. This book is a full-color guide for both beginners and experienced composters, with an A–Z reference section. There are lots of good reasons to make compost: A third to two-thirds of the average garbage can contents can be composted, so you can lighten your bin—and stop it smelling. Less organic material is sent to landfill, so less noxious liquids and greenhouse gases—especially methane—are produced. Composting saves you money—you won’t need to buy any more peat-based compost! This book will give you all the information you need for successful composting.
