Gary J Byrnes thrillers in paperback are available print-on-demand also. All Gary’s digital bestsellers are FREE until we get the vaccine, more here.

One positive from the pandemic struck me today. We’ve changed. We are focused on the future, the promise of a vaccine, the chance to enjoy and appreciate the things we took for granted just months ago. Think back, think about Trump and his MAGA desire to return to the 1950s. Think Brexit and the Conservatives’ fantasy of a return to the 1930s. Think about all the deluded nationalists around the world. They all want to take us backwards, to some imagined older, ‘better’ time. These are all bankrupt ideologies. But there is a better way…

Bamboo toothbrushes are awesome. They feel much more pleasant and natural in your mouth, they help sustain jobs in many interesting places, you can easily write your name on them, and they biodegrade completely after use! From the UN Global Goals: Did you know that 1 billion toothbrushes are thrown away each year in the US alone? That’s enough to stretch around the Earth 4 times! 🤯
Plastic toothbrushes end up in landfills and in our oceans, and are consumed by wildlife and fish who mistake them for food. It’s time to say no thanks to plastic toothbrushes and yes please to more sustainable and eco-friendly ones, like our bestselling bamboo toothbrush. 🐟 🐬 🐠
This Manifesto is about defining a simple, clear and direct set of rules for the people and companies that construct artificial intelligence, algorithms and technology.
This Manifesto aims to prevent a dystopia where: humans are governed by AI and algorithms; where tech’s appetites for resources and power have destroyed the environment; and where surveillance capitalism knows no boundaries.
All humans are invited to contribute to this manifesto and to share its ideas, for the benefit of all humankind and nature.

Think about how heavy water is. Now imagine the amount of energy that must be used in transporting it from source to your home. Our bottled water often comes from halfway around the world. And it’s expensive. But what about the mains taps in our homes? How come so many of us don’t want to drink tap water, even though it’s cheaper and so much better for the environment?

What is your carbon footprint? It is a measure of the amount of CO2 you help generate, mostly through your everyday choices. The average for industrialised countries is 11 tons of CO2 per person per year. The world average is 4 tons. The target for all of us? 2 tons. If you want to accurately measure your carbon footprint, this calculator from the WWF is a good start. If you fund the planting of just one acre of hemp with Readathriller, you pretty much offset your CO2 for a year, so watch out for our CO2 offset packages, coming soon. Meanwhile, use our CO2 offset calculator tools and buy some hemp seeds and away you go into an instantly more sustainable future.

Meat CO2 calculator for you to use and benefit from today. It’s so easy to make a small change to your lifestyle that can make a huge difference to climate change. Just commit to replacing a number of meaty meals every week with a vegetarian or vegan option, and the benefits soon add up. A cheeseburger meal has a CO2 footprint of 4.35 kg! As an added bonus, you’re also making a difference to animal welfare. Reducing meat consumption helps put pressure on the meat industry to treat animals humanely if it wants to have a future. Start with just one meal a week and see the difference!

Because we want you to enjoy a fabulous online shopping experience in our sustainable lifestyle and hemp marketplace, we now offer FREE SHIPPING on most products. It may take a little longer for your order to arrive – that’s because we use surface shipping to minimise environmental impact.
Free shipping is one way for us to work with suppliers all over the world to bring high quality, sustainable products to you. Reasonably-priced products from Readathriller can’t compete with the big ecommerce brands that own fleets of airplanes, or have cosy relationships with global express delivery brands. And that’s what makes us different. Our main aim is not to maximise profit by squeezing out all competitors, but to save this planet.
Readathriller.com represents a new model of capitalism, one that puts buyers, suppliers and planet on an equal footing, recognising that we need to share the results of human ingenuity and the bounty of this planet fairly, while looking after the planet herself. Planet Earth is the capital that we all share. That’s a fundamentally different way of looking at our economy. Try it.
We know that you’ll love our eco-friendly products:

We’re building a completely new kind of hemp and sustainable lifestyle marketplace, one which sells the products you want and need, delivers great value for money, and actively stops climate change. We will benefit the planet both by displacing products that are harmful to our air, land and water, and by planting hemp for every purchase, so that the marketplace itself powers the plant engines that absorb CO2 from the air, stopping climate change.
We need to know what matters to you, and what you’d be interested in buying online in the Readathriller marketplace. It only takes a minute, and you can sign up for our awesome-sauce, free email newsletter at the same time!
