Fancy being a superhero and saving the whole damned planet? Well, you can. It turns out all that nonsense about mutation or irradiated spiders wasn’t at all necessary. All you have to do is simply buy a book.

Better World Books is a US-based online bookseller founded by college students who decided to start a business with the unusual goal of being socially responsible and making a better world. Better World Books does this by selling books and using the profits to fund literacy programmes worldwide.

If that wasn’t noble enough, Better World Books is also a launch partner for Carbonfund.org, an organisation that helps offset carbon emissions. Remember, kids, don’t be an enemy of Earth; stop global wanging.
