📖 A Movement Fueled by Books and Action
This photo below was taken around 2010 at a book signing at The Grove Barnes & Noble in Los Angeles, California. As you can see, Seth proudly posed beside several of his bestselling sustainability books. Now, more than a decade later, he continues to bring that same energy and commitment to every stop on his tour.
🌎 Why This Book Tour Matters
Currently, Seth is donating the Green Guides to classrooms across the country. Although this may sound simple, the impact is powerful. These books are helping students and teachers learn how to go green, save energy, and cut utility costs—while building environmental pride and climate awareness.
Moreover, this tour is part of a larger goal: helping the nation get back on its feet by fueling the green jobs economy. While not everyone can sponsor programs at the level of corporate energy partners, Seth welcomes all levels of support. That’s why he’s also raising funds to keep the “Educate People Through the Green Guides” tour alive and thriving.
🌱 Green Jobs Are Not a Four-Letter Word
As Seth often says, green jobs are real jobs—and they’re reshaping our future. From HVAC technicians installing energy-efficient boilers and chillers to solar panel installers, these roles are creating cleaner cities and stronger economies.
Through the Green Guides tour, Seth is spreading the message that green living is not just possible—it’s essential. This tour has already gained international attention, with growing audiences in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Japan, and Australia.
🏛️ College & Bookstore Tour
Additionally, Seth has a college tour focused on green careers and climate entrepreneurship. Expect free appearances at local Barnes & Noble stores and independent bookshops nationwide. These events will include signings, discussions, and tips on how to build a green life—one choice at a time.
Stay tuned for announcements about tour dates, campus stops, and new media coverage.
