Author, digital entrepreneur and content creator, San Severo, Puglia, Italy
Who I am
I'm Ciro Simone Irmici. I write, and I build things. I'm based in San Severo, in Puglia, southern Italy.
I'm best known for my micro books: more than 250 short, practical guides on personal growth, creativity and everyday skills. 170 of them have been turned into audiobooks in English, Spanish, French and German, available on Amazon, Google Play, Everand, Audiobooks.com and ElevenReader.
Alongside the writing I build digital products: mobile apps, automation systems, and publications like this one. It is the same work in different forms: taking something people find confusing and making it usable.
Why I write about living with less waste
I write about this from the household side, not the activist side. Southern Italy gets hot, energy costs what it costs, and the questions that matter in a normal home are practical ones: what actually lowers a bill, what lasts longer than the thing it replaced, and which "eco" products are just more expensive.
GreenPlanet News is about changes worth making at home: energy, water, food waste, repairs and the small decisions that add up. No guilt, no slogans, and no pretending that a single household fixes the climate.
How articles here are written
- Every article answers one question, and answers it early rather than after six paragraphs of preamble.
- Where a number matters, euros saved, watts, degrees, litres, the number is given.
- If something saves very little, the article says so instead of recommending it anyway.
- Articles are researched and drafted with the help of AI tools and reviewed before publication. The topics, the editorial standards above, and the responsibility for what is published are mine.
What this blog will never do
It won't shame you into changes, and it won't claim savings it can't back up. Energy savings depend on your home, your climate and your tariff: treat every figure here as an order of magnitude, not a promise.
