This Tuesday, the University of New Hampshire is screening The Story of Stuff as part of its Earth Day festivities.The short animated film by environmental activist Annie Leonard shines a light on the production chain behind most of our everyday consumer products. It's an eye-opening exploration of our often wasteful, disposable culture. Word of Mouth host Virginia Prescott talks with Annie about the film and the mostly unseen effects of our daily purchases.

You can see The Story of Stuff Tuesday, April 22, at UNH's Memorial Union Building. Screenings are at 1pm and 6pm. Click here for more details.
