Just In Time For Holiday Shoppers: The Story of Stuff

The Story of Stuff by Annie Leonard (www.storyofstuff.com) tells you exactly where all that "stuff" that you purchase comes from and where it goes when you throw it away. It is an entertaining but more importantly informative tour of our consumer-driven culture and exposes the real costs of our "use-it and lose-it approach to stuff ".

If you truly care about becoming a socially conscious consumer this video is a must see. I just wish that everyone could have seen it before "Black Friday."

The following three video clips give you an introduction to the story but please, please watch it in its entirety.
