The book itself sounds awesome, but there is also this important note at the end of the article that is worth paying attention to:

With the planet headed toward a population of around nine billion oxygen-swilling, carbon-emitting people by 2040, according to the United Nations, the ultimate carbon offset is to choose sex that does not result in having babies. 

 

“The No. 1 thing people can do to be an eco-sexual is to have fewer kids, or have none at all,” said Weiss, who is childless.

If that sounds outrageous, just give a thought to the 90 percent of the estimated diapers sold each year that end up in landfills. Or how the carbon footprint of one extra person far outweighs all the energy-saving lightbulbs you’ve installed.

“I think over-population is an important conversation for people to have. It is something people think about in terms of third world countries. But it is also a conversation that would benefit us in America to have,” she said.
