Most of us don't realize how many opportunities come our way to work toward a more compassionate world.  This book, based on Mother Teresa of Calcutta's advice to "do small things with great love," opens our eyes to such opportunities and shows us how we can incorporate them into our daily lives. It's a matter of adopting certain "We Attitudes."  Although the book is written from a Christian point of view, it speaks to everyone who wants to take part in building a healthier human family.

Being earth-friendly can be an eco-nomic experience.  You just need to know how to go about it.  This is not the typical listing of isolated things you should do to help the environment.  Instead, it is set up in problem-solution mode.  That is, it presents a problem-area, explains how it drains our resources and family finances, then proposes measures (old and new ones you haven't seen) to take that will protect not only our earthly home but our wallets, as well.  You'll find that being ecological can actually save you money.
