‘The
future of the human species is dependent on how we take care of our young. If
we are to survive eco parenting is not an option it is a necessity. Eco
parenting practices as outlined in this book can help save the environment and
curtail the current epidemic of lifestyle related chronic diseases such as
obesity, diabetes, ADHD, asthma etc. while also ensuring that children and
their parents live long, joyous and fulfilling lives.’

'‘Eco parenting - growing greener children' is beyond doubt amongst the most important
and informative books ever written on nurturing healthy, happy and sustainable
families. This easy to read book contains such valuable, interesting and well
