The Story of Stuff

From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad. “The Story of Stuff,” shown in its entirety on Green Time, is a look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. Host Don Fitz and Elston K. McCowan, who is an organizer for Service Employees International Union, Baptist minister, and former Green Party candidate for mayor, discuss the attempt to use stuff to fill empty lives. This Green Time (No. 322) is produced by the Gateway Greens in conjunction with KDHX.
