Get them started young. This may be ineffective when they can't actually comprehend words, but as they get older and can understand more and more teach them that green is the way to go.

Easy Green Living, by Renee Loux

First to recommend

Description

I know there are a lot of books about green living but you can never get too much info. There's always something new I discover in these books, and the stuff I know, I can skim over, so it's a win-win situation for myself and the environment.

Think Green!

Description

I didn't have this read to me when I was a kid (of course it didn't exist then either) but my mom was the main driving force for my environmentalism. Now, mom's have it easy and books do all the work.

Greenopia, by Green Media Group

First to recommend

Description

There's a bunch of these green shopping guides by city. I think I already recommended the Los Angeles version (if I didn't, you know now) and it was rather enlightening. It ranked the "greenness" of the places (and explained how it did so) as well as splitting by category. Being green in an urban setting was never so easy.
