The Story of Stuff
December 7, 2007
by Sustainability Funders
The Funders Workgroup for Sustainable Production and Consumption (the Sustainability Funders), a funders-only working group within EGA, and the Tides Foundation recently collaborated to produce a short film about the environmental and social impacts of our current production and consumption systems. The goal in producing the film is to raise awareness about the often hidden impacts of production and consumption, to highlight the connections between a wide range of issues, and to spark discussion about both the systemic nature of the problem and effective strategies to address them. The film, The Story of Stuff, can be viewed at www.storyofstuff.com.

We hope you enjoy it! If you want more information, or would like to discuss the film, please contact Annie Leonard, Sustainability Workgroup Coordinator at aleonard@ega.org.
