ECO-SEX: Go Green Between the Sheets and Make Your Love Life Sustainable opens with smart, sexy questions:
- What’s that condom really made of?
- Does the birth control pill do more harm than good?
- Where can I find sex toys that won’t harm my body OR the environment?
- How do I make sure that my lingerie is as sustainable as my locally-grown veggies?
- Which brand of organic chocolate is equally delicious and good for the planet?
- Why is overpopulation the environmental disaster we never talk about in public?
ECO-SEX provides even smarter answers that every ecosexual must grasp before sliding between sustainably-grown bamboo sheets. Chock-full of reliable websites, manufacturers, and labels to look out for, ECO-SEX is a user-friendly manual covering courtship rituals, bedroom basics and eco-lifestyle choices. From greening your beauty routine to sourcing fair-trade gifts to green solutions for STDs to eco-parenting––no dirty detail is left out. Whether you’re worried about Big Oil or trying to achieve your own Big O, ECO-SEX has the answers.
Ms. Weiss takes the guesswork out of which ingredients to avoid in cosmetics and personal care products, while exploring the dangers of “greenwashing.” Experts abound in ECO-SEX: a certified aromatherapist and natural botanical perfumer provides DIY essential oil blends for the ultimate in libido-stimulation. Celebrity chefs share their most seductive vegan and raw recipes, and a connoisseur of seduction offers her tips on eating sensually. ECO-SEX also covers tantra, yoga positions for better sex, the best cities to find single greenies, and even sex tips for pregnant chicks. Remember, there’s nothing sexier than a clear conscience.
