Big Box USA: The Environmental Impact of America’s Biggest Retail Stores by Bart Elmore
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A fascinating look at the big box store model and the environment. It began with Walmart and the rest followed the model. One section of the book is devoted to the big box stores that are outdoor retailers, such as REI, Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops. I wrote a longer review which will be published in a forthcoming issue of the Electronic Green Journal.
