Good Stuff

The WorldWatch Institute, in partnership with EARTHWORKS, recently released a new publication:  Good Stuff?  A Behind-the-Scenes Guide to the Things We Buy

Good Stuff?
Quoting from the WorldWatch website:

"Have you ever wondered where chocolate comes from, if antibacterial soap is good for your family, or how to recycle an old computer? If you've had these or other questions about the environmental and social impacts of the products you buy and use, Good Stuff is for you. It contains many of the tips, facts, and links you'll need to start making more informed purchases that benefit your health and the environment.

Check it out!  You can view the Good Stuff? guide online, or download as a PDF document.
