The green hedonist

Alexander von Schönburg's self-experiment: How to stylishly save the planet.

Of course, we all want to save the world, but the details can be rather joyless. Local products from the organic store taste better than industrial goods, and plastic bags are an aesthetic nightmare. However, if one wants to be consistently climate-neutral, it requires a radical lifestyle change, which can quickly turn into a new eco-religion that annoys those around you. Nevertheless, Alexander von Schönburg is convinced: It must be possible to live pleasantly while still being somewhat resource-efficient. He describes his attempt to lead a healthy and ecologically correct life and reveals the difficulties and contradictions he encounters along the way - delightfully self-ironic and very true.
