    A web site built by the amazing students in a Social Studies Methods class at Bemidji State University to help teachers facilitate lessons on themes related to The Omnivore's Dilemma. Lesson plans, materials, games, videos. A great tool for a teacher who wants to jigsaw student learning and is looking for accessible content.

  • It'll 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.
  • Roland Gesthuizen on 21 Nov 11
     
    From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. 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.
