Have you ever wondered where all the stuff we buy comes from and where it goes when we throw it out? 

Check out the Free Range Studios movie The Story of Stuff with eco-activist, Annie Leonard. It’s a short course in consumerism that is informative and entertaining. This is the story of the impact of our consumer-driven culture on the world. It’s easy to understand and gets it’s point across in an informative and humorous way.

“From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view…The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world.”

Once you’ve watched the movie, you’ll want to check out the list of 10 Little and Big Things You Can Do.
