As a how-to manual it's not great but as a book talking about how a family decide to leave the city behind and make themselves more ecologically friendly it's a lot of fun. I'd seen Dick Strawbridge on TV tinkering around with scrap to make useful things. This is that sort of idea taken to the extreme of having a life makeover to be more green. It's interesting and you see how some it could be applied to your own life but without the resources they had it would be difficult to implement some of the changes.

An updated paperback edition of Dick Strawbridge's bestselling guide to eco-living - published to coincide with series 3 of his popular show It's Not Easy Being Green follows Dick Strawbridge and his family as they leave their comfortable home in the Midlands to tackle a remarkable self-sufficiency project - New House Farm in Cornwall. Their main objective is to have as little negative impact on the planet as possible by producing no waste and removing their dependency upon fossil fuels - all without compromising on their comfortable, modern 21st-century lifestyles. It's a laudable aim, but they are definitely not eco-warriors!With his hands-on, flamboyant approach, Dick offers practical tips on everything, from constructing water wheels, gadgets and greenhouses, to the trials of living with animals and knocking up 'proper' wholesome food. Packed with information about the cost of power, sourcing building materials, taking up permaculture and finding transport alternatives, It's Not Easy Being Green highlights the small steps that can change your life and is a simple, inspirational guide for everyone considering the path to green living.
