TreeHugger Book Hits Shelves, Staffer Falls in Love

Disclaimer: I’m TreeHugger’s Editorial Assistant. I love the website. So yes, I’m partial.
If TreeHugger were a guy he’d be my match made in heaven; smart, sleek, idealist, good-looking and of course, green. Though, if there were one trait I could change (yes, I know—you can never really change someone), it would be his scattered, mysterious sort of ways. When I wish for him to make me a better, greener person, I have to dig deep into his computer soul, penetrating the bottomless archive, searching for meaning in his tiny little search box. With my busy schedule, sometimes I want green on my terms—whenever, wherever. And yes, sometimes even in bed.
Today it’s possible. All of the delicious eco-bits and pieces have been culled together in one comprehensive place—TreeHugger’s hot-off-the-press book, Ready, Set. Green: Eight Weeks to Modern Eco-Living. Founder, Graham Hill and Editor-In-Chief, Meaghan O’Neill lay down the steps to a low-impact life without just listing off tips. They debunk common eco-myths and provide handy tools and resources to make going green, easy.
While TreeHugger will always remain my steady, green beau—it’ll be nice having the book by my (bed)side.

Oh Yeah! When's the Treehugger SUV coming out? Or the Treehugger bottled water?
So you've disabled comments on the 'we really needed an SUV story', and buried it quicksmart. Unsurprising. I just want to let you, and your advertisers, know that I will not visit your site any more.
Those of us who go out of our way to avoid driving cars and actually try to implement what is preached here can only raise a collective sigh at your outstanding hypocrisy.
When I said you made me want to vomit, I meant it. When I said I'd delete TH from my bookmarks, I did it.
When I say goodbye, "treehugger", I mean it.
That's what doing as you say means.
Goodbye.
sincerely,
disgusted.
I really love Treehugger, but you missed a bet. Why isn't the book available as an online download? For a price of course, but wouldn't that be the greenest way to deliver this content to your readers?
"If TreeHugger were a guy he’d be my match made in heaven; smart, sleek, idealist, good-looking and of course, green."
Can I just tell you, since I started reading Treehugger, I have been looking for this exact guy. No luck thus far.
Hey pretty cool, it's available for the Kindle as well. Been meaning to get one of those.
I was also wondering why this was not available for download instead of sacrificing trees to print books!! I won't be buying the book until it is electronic!!!
Some people like having a break from looking at the computer all day. I know I do!
Why not put the book in libraries for people to check out?
