1 out of 5 stars Dangerously encouraging consumer complacency   August 5, 2008
  0 out of 12 found this review helpful

Apparently corporations are all going green. Even Ford will become perfectly sustainable. Now they abuse their employees produce thousands of fossil-fuel-burning cars out of a "green" facility built with materials extracted from where, a green, sustainable mining operation?br /br /This book has some good points quotes, but in the end it's another propaganda piece for greenwashing corporations.


5 out of 5 stars Remake the Way You Think   July 25, 2008
Such an inspiring book! McDonough and Braungart offer much more than just passion for creating a green world--they tell us how to do it. Through their experience innovating new systems with companies like Ford, Herman Miller, DuPont, and many more, they bring serious intelligence to a movement that often feels like another fad. Current enthusiasm aside, Green is here to stay, and we need to start understanding the things we talk about.br /br /Put on your creativity hat and prepare to be dazzled.


5 out of 5 stars Spectacular Read!!   July 16, 2008
The book was delivered in good condition and in a timely fashion. I am very pleased with your services.


5 out of 5 stars great read   July 14, 2008
this was a fascinating book with a great amount of real life examples and how their theories actually apply to real life and how their design plan of "upcycling" (opposed to recycling) is actually do-able. Even this book is made of materials that fit into their design plans. I've read some books that have great ideas but no way of implementing them, the two authors are already succeeded. it is well written and a good read.


5 out of 5 stars cradle to cradle   July 5, 2008
This was an interesting book to read and an important one. Is has not used paper as its format. It offers a slightly different take on the ecology problems. It focuses on creating products that are designed at the onset to be environmentally sound and completely recyclable. It is well written, easy to read and offers a bit of hope. Although at times I felt it was perhaps a bit idealistic, since completing it I have read about 2-3 businesses that have been started using these principles. Numi tea one.
