Annie Leonard-The Story of Stuff & Marci Shimoff- on Scott Cluthe's Positively Incorrect!

Scott Cluthe interviews Annie Leonard, author of The Story of Stuff. It was just released in a paperback edition. What’s in the Story of Stuff book? Annie talks about the release of the book, The Story of Stuff: "It’s all the stuff you asked me about! After launching the Story of Stuff film, I received tens of thousands of emails asking for more information than I could possibly fit into the film. I wrote this book to explore these issues further with you and to share a journey both personal and material. While exploring where our t-shirts, laptops and books come from, I also share my own journey along the way. I share stories of how I went from being a high school kid interested in forests to an adult fascinated with garbage to realizing that the real solution lay beyond either of those issues in isolation." The Story of Stuff Project was created by Annie Leonard to leverage and extend the film’s impact. We amplify public discourse on a series of environmental, social and economic concerns and facilitate the growing Story of Stuff community’s involvement in strategic efforts to build a more sustainable and just world. Our on-line community includes over 150,000 activists and we partner with hundreds of environmental and social justice organizations worldwide to create and distribute our films, curricula and other content. The Story of Stuff Project is fiscally sponsored by the Tides Center. The Tides Center is supported by grants from both private and public foundations, contributions from viewers, and earned revenue from speaking appearances and DVD and book sales.
