This book is an excellent resource and goes into depth regarding the 'hidden' environmental costs of just about every major thing consumers spend their money on. It reads kind of like a text-book (charts & graphs included), but well worth it. For those who don't feel like studying, Conclusion: Driving a car is the single worst thing by far that you can do as a consumer.
