What people are saying about the 2024 Revised and Updated Second Edition:
"Kerry Crofton offers us a mindful reminder that human technology can never replace the wonders of the natural world.”
                                                                                                                   — Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods

"Less Screen More Green provides a critically important and timely observation that Mother Nature provides lessons, experiences, and awareness that calm, center, and enrich the developing child with a constantly curious, growing brain in ways more powerful and meaningful than any screen can."
                                                                              — Michael Rich, MD, MPH, author of The Mediatrician’s Guide
                                                                      and Founder of the Digital Wellness Lab at Harvard Medical School


"Crofton's Less Screen More Green is an essential resource for parents and educators concerned about the effects of overexposure to technology. The Mindful Tech Plan™ section offers helpful evidence-based guidance on supporting well-being through responsible technology use at home, school and work -- including how to assess needs, set goals and boundaries around tech use, and find healthy alternatives. This important guidebook cuts through the overwhelm and uncertainty around how to balance screen time with a restorative connection with nature."
                                — Josh Lane, author of Conscious Nature: The Art and Neuroscience of Meditating In Nature

"When Elder Ann LaBillois and Kerry Crofton facilitated the Care for the Earth's Caregivers series through Green Teacher and Take Me Outside, they drew heavily on the wisdom in Less Screen More Green, much to the benefit of the participants. This insightful book shows us how to find a healthier balance between screen time and green time."
                                                                                                                                       — Ian Shanahan, Editor, Green Teacher

"Kerry Crofton's book addresses important considerations around the use of tech and its balance with our time spent outside that are imperative to the health and well-being of future generations."       — Colin Harris, Executive Director, Take Me Outside

"If you are looking for solutions on how to improve children’s health in this digital era, look no further than Dr. Crofton’s book. Learn the dangers of excess digital exposure and how spending time in nature can help re-establish our wellbeing. As a father of three children who attend Waldorf Education, I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Crofton’s approach!"
                                                                                      — Drew Sinatra, NMD, LAc, naturopathic doctor and acupuncturist

"In this book you will learn the cardiac risks, and other known hazards to human health, from wirelessly-connected devices, as well as hear sound recommendations to reduce the risks and use this technology more safely."
                                                                             — W. Lee Cowden, MD, cardiologist and integrative medicine specialist

"Delighted to see Kerry Crofton's new book. She has brought together some of the leading public health professionals worried about the psychological and developmental impacts of electronic screens with those who understand the harmful effects of wireless radiation as well. The world is a better place because she has created a phenomenally valuable program with her Mindful Tech Plan™."                          — Devra Davis, Ph.D. MPH, Founder and President of Environmental Health Trust

"As the former president of Microsoft Canada, I understand that you may share the views that Kerry Crofton and I used to have – that the wireless technology filling the marketplace is safe, and that government standards are protecting us. I encourage you to keep an open mind and listen to Crofton's contributing experts and their safer tech guidelines to be healthy in this digital age, and what they advise about electro-sensitivity, an emerging and usually misdiagnosed medical condition. Less Screen More Green is a much needed wake-up call with excellent safer tech guidelines."
                                       — Frank Clegg, CEO Canadians for Safe Technology and former president Microsoft Canada

"Crofton's book delivers an important message that humanity needs at this time. Most of us are addicted to screens. Only when this addiction is broken can one begin to realize how harmful wireless technology is to our health. Thank you, Kerry, for creating this beautiful resource.”                                      — Jeromy Johnson, M.S. CE, author of How to Find a Healthy Home
