101 Ways to Help the Environment
When we
committed in June 2007 to living more simply and
naturally - while reducing our waste and energy
consumption - we had no idea of the incredible
results we would have. Not only are we living
more in alignment with our values and goals, but
we have concrete proof we are making a
difference...
Please
contact us
to order the book. Thank you! |

The
Story of Stuff
- If you haven't seen this
free online movie yet, it is
well worth the 2o minutes:
|
|
"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
will 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."
