I just finished reading "Strategies for the Green Environment: Opportunities & Challenges in the New World of Business" by Joel Makower & Cara Pike. As a consultant to the green collar industry, I stay on top of most books that are written on the subject of green business. Clear? I have read every book written by Joel Makower & my expectations were very high, I am happy to report, he did not disappoint. This is the best book written on the topic of green business.

The book is target to executives in large & small corporations. The author offers strategy advice & what executives can do right now to make a difference. And so... So far so good. What I like is the author does not just focus on the problems, rather he focuses on the solutions. The book is written in an easy to understand fashion & the topics are present in a way that is easy to digest. The book gives a step by step guide for business to tackle a wide range of issues form climate issues to alternative energy. The author does a great job of delivering the message that these green initiatives will not just help the environment, they will also help the bottom line. The author demonstrates how corporations can save millions of dollars $ $ a year by making minor adjustments in their business strategy.

I recommend this book to & executive in any company. This should be required reading in business school because this is information every future executive will need to know to do business in this era.
