Official synopsis Publisher
Jasime Hayward’s plans for junior year include juggling two boyfriends, landing lead roles in school plays, and having fun with her A-list clique–to be followed by a triumphant senior year, then acting school in Hollywood. Life has a funny way of changing our plans. When a mysterious package arrives at Jasmine’s Albuquerque home, her family learns that Great-aunt Olivia has passed away and lef them a five million dollar inheritance. There’s just one catch. Worried about the environment and climate change, Olivia demands that the Haywards slash their energy use–their carbon footprint–by 80 percent in a year. Suddenly, every part of day-to-day life, from getting to school to making a sandwich, puts a fortune on the line. Jasmine’s family of reluctant eco-warriors strives, connives, invents, and sometimes cheats its way toward the goal. Jasmine worries that winning the money means losing friends, boyfriends, and her dream of an acting career, but she finds love and friendship in the last place she expected it. She also makes it to Hollywood, though not in the way she imagined.
