Moms today are busier than ever. Taking care of the planet sounds like a great idea—but in the midst of taking care of your kids, it becomes just one more thing to feel guilty about not doing. Tracey Bianchi knows what it’s like to live in the middle of suburbia with a to-do list too long to write down. In Green Mama, she brings green living within reach for every overtired, overstressed, and overwhelmed mom. Her practical suggestions help moms like you make environmentally wise choices at the grocery store, schoolyard, and kitchen table, while keeping an eye on the kids and the budget. With creative tips, tricks, and resources, she shares her stories of successes and failures in saving the planet and inspiring her kids to love God’s world. Moms need a resource like Green Mama to remind them that green living is not another chore but an invitation to a creative partnership with God. As Bianchi enthusiastically tells you, green living is more than a trend—it is God’s beautiful plan for the planet and for your life.

Bianchi artfully blends a Christian outlook with a quest to live a more environmentally conscious lifestyle.While unabashedly focused on saving the world as part of God’s plan, she realizes it will take a lot ofpractical choices to accomplish that goal.

Bianchi doesn’t make suggestions about specificproducts so much as point out the connections between our choices and some very dire ramifications. “It’sall hooked up,” she writes, and then draws a line from fewer scallops on her plate to the increase inpredatory cownose rays that are booming due to the overfishing of sharks. Bianchi avers that conveniencemust not be the choice of those truly committed to their faith, family, and environment. Hip, funny, andearnest without being preachy, Bianchi is an environmentally focused author. Fox News fans, among manyothers, will easily embrace
