Review: Dave Rea, a researcher at Edinburgh University sees climate change as one of the greatest threats to humankind in the 21st century. In this handbook he urges each of us to cut our personal greenhouse gas emissions by 60 per cent – the level necessary to halt the current trend, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and explains how we can do it. He looks at the climate impact of housing, gardening, food, money, work, transport, and even death and challenges every one of us to ‘do our bit’, before it is too late.
