Make Your Place: Affordable, Sustainable Nesting Skills
by Raleigh Briggs
It's not easy being green - especially as ready-made corporate pseudo-solutions to everday needs are pushed down our throats by the new "green" capitalism, making sustainability (or rather a vague feeling of absolution from guilt over habits of overconsumption) a privilege for those who can afford it.
So naturally we were exceptionally pleased to see the latest from our friends at Microcosm Publishing, Make Your Place: Affordable, Sustainable Nesting Skills - a compilation of simple, really sustainable solutions to basic problems - with sections on organic gardening, industrial chemical-free house-cleaning, and natural health remedies. And all in pocket-size, hand-lettered $7 book.
For more on the critique of green capitalism, check out the latest issue of the excellent The Commoner: A Web Journal for Other Values.
