The book Live happily without garbage* is the Zero Waste bible and well deserved its place among the best books on sustainability. This sustainability book was written by Bea Johson, the rightly self-proclaimed founder of the Zero Waste movement. You'll learn her story in the book and learn how to massively reduce the waste from your household without bending. Through her new awareness, the author has managed to reduce her spending by more than 40% and she tells you in her book how easy it is to do. With this sustainability book, you will get tips from the best source. For me, this book is the best guidebook for the Zero Waste Lifestylewho will save our world.

Sandra Krautwaschl has with her book Plastic free zone* documents a self-experiment that rightly ranks among the best books on sustainability. Motivated by the impact of plastic waste on our natural world, Sandra and her family decided to live plastic-free for an initial month. This has now turned into several years and the author shares all of her experiences and challenges she has faced and overcome with her family in this sustainability book. Learn from these valuable experiences to make less plastic waste yourself. A clear recommendation from me for all who are about to start a life without plastic or want to produce even less plastic waste.

The book Do it yourself instead of buying is the perfect sustainability book to help you think outside the box and create your own alternatives to convenience foods. Since many overpriced, chemical products await us in the supermarket, you can also easily make the ideal, plastic-free and natural alternatives to them yourself. In this book from Smarticular Verlag you get 137 recipes and ideas for DIY in the kitchen. If you implement the tips from this sustainability book, you do something for your health, the environment, your wallet and especially for your own well-being.

In her Zero Waste book. Less waste is the new green author Shia Su explains, based on her personal experiences over many years, how each of us can produce significantly less plastic waste and do the environment a big favor. In this sustainability book, Shia Su shows you how she can put all of her trash from one year into a canning jar. This is possible because she has perfected not making trash by focusing on the basic rules of the Zero Waste lifestyle. The book is very clearly a perfect introduction to living a zero waste life. Loosely and very personally written, Shia Su takes you on a journey to a new smart lifestyle in this book.

Simply eco* is a sustainability book that lets you give your household a real eco-check. You will discover things in your home that you have not previously considered environmentally harmful. In the book by Marcus Franken, I personally find it great that he is one of the few who also refers to the environmental friendliness of the furniture in the apartment. The book is a wonderful guide for anyone who wants to live more resource-conscious and is therefore also the ideal book for your start in an environmentally conscious life. I especially recommend it to anyone who wants to give their entire home or household a sustainability check.

Simply better living is for me the most comprehensive book on sustainability. In this book, the WorldWatch Institute has really assessed all areas of our life and development in terms of sustainability. And even though the book dates back to 2010, the editors were able to foresee very well the developments up to today. It is a sustainability book that will open your eyes and give you a clearer view of what is happening on our planet, with special reference to the role of business and politics in combating the environmental problems of our time.
