"The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. 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. It'll teach you something, it'll make you laugh, and it just may change the way you look at all the stuff in your life forever."Ready to tackle the stuff in your life? Browse the Conscious Consumer Marketplace and Better World Shopper guide to find products that help people and the planet. When it's time to clear out the clutter, use the Freecycle network to find someone in your town who can give your stuff a second life. If you're ready to cut down on purchases altogether, consider making a resolution to "buy nothing new" and support your local economy in other ways by joining a Compact community in your area.
Enjoy the Story of Stuff video and talk it over with your family and friends. Where did your conversations lead? Looking around your home, which types of stuff just get in the way and which items are essential to your lifestyle?
