About
In recent years, the impact that we and our lifestyle, our consumption habits, our choices and behaviors have on the planet and on other people’s lives has become increasingly noticeable and flagrant. Therefore, there is an increasing urgency for change, not only institutional and governmental, but also individual. We all have an important role in changing the direction we are taking as a society.
With these ebooks, I help you take steps towards a more sustainable and healthy lifestyle.
