Unlike many environmental books, "Mostly Practical" avoids the guilt-inducing tone and instead focuses on making sustainable choices accessible and enjoyable. Knowles believes that positive reinforcement and realistic advice are far more effective than judgment or fear.

The book covers a wide range of topics, including:

  • Daily habits: Simple tweaks to your routine that can reduce your carbon footprint, such as unplugging appliances and using reusable bags.
  • Food choices: Sustainable farming practices, reducing meat consumption, and eating locally sourced produce.
  • Home energy: Energy-efficient appliances, solar panels, and DIY home renovations to cut your energy bills.
  • Transportation: Electric vehicles, public transportation, and carpooling to minimize emissions.
  • Investing: Socially responsible investing and supporting companies that prioritize sustainability.

Knowles acknowledges that living sustainably isn't always easy, especially in a world where convenience and consumerism often take precedence. However, he argues that even imperfect efforts can make a difference when scaled up.

Throughout the book, Knowles weaves in inspiring stories and anecdotes from people who have made a positive impact on the environment. These real-world examples provide motivation and encouragement to readers, showing that change is possible.

In addition to practical tips, "Mostly Practical" also includes:

  • A comprehensive resource guide with contacts for eco-friendly products and services.
  • A dedicated chapter on how to talk to friends and family about environmental issues.
  • A printable workbook to track your progress and stay accountable.

"A refreshing and empowering guide for anyone who wants to make a difference without losing their mind." - Sandra Bullock, Actress and Environmental Activist

"Knowles' humor and sensible advice make environmentalism accessible to even the most reluctant." - Bill McKibben, Author of "Falter"
