Carbon Detox

Your step-by-step guide to getting real about climate change

Carbon Detox is one of the UK's top selling books on climate change written by COIN's Founder and Director of Projects, George Marshall.

It offers a provocative and entertaining approach to climate change. From the very first chapter, entitled "Oh no, not another bloody polar bear!," it challenges conventional thinking and offers fresh ways for ordinary ‘non-greenies’ to understand and respond to this global crisis. It explains:

  • Why the phrases ‘climate change’ and ‘global warming’ fail to convince us
  • Why we don’t trust the messengers or the message
  • Why we need to think of climate change as a scary but survivable roller coaster ride
  • Why small measures like recycling plastic bags are often an excuse for doing nothing
  • Why speed, fun and luxurious treats must be a part of a light carbon lifestyle
