Summary: The Book is a quirky, accessible, and surprisingly comprehensive guide to understanding the environmental impact of everyday items and activities. The book is structured alphabetically, like a dictionary of carbon footprints, with hundreds of entries that estimate the greenhouse gas emissions (typically in kilograms of CO₂ equivalent) for each item or activity. Some are obvious — flights, cars, beef — while others are unexpected or amusing, such as sending an email or growing marijuana.
