Come summer,
we’ll release a powerful documentary short we’ve
been working on since last Fall.
Burning
Injustice profiles the
decades-long fight to close one of California’s
two remaining solid waste incinerators – Covanta
Stanislaus – and return Modesto, CA and
surrounding communities to their zero waste
roots.
Through vivid,
human-centered storytelling we’ll paint a
striking picture of environmental racism and
injustice to make the moral argument for the
incinerator’s closure. We’ll also highlight our
Grassroots Grantee and partner Valley
Improvement Project’s efforts to return Modesto
to environmental trailblazer status, enabling us
to meet a critical
goal in
our plastic solutions storytelling: ensuring
that we center solutions that most benefit
communities that have borne the brunt of the
plastic pollution itself.
Will
you help us meet our storytelling goals this
spring?
There’s a lot
more to come. The final episodes of our
wide-reaching Solving
Plastic series will take a
look at real world solutions to the plastics
crisis in Medellin, Colombia, and at a music
festival in Arizona. But although the series is
wrapping up, the idea behind it is not – we’ll
pick it back up at the global level with our
storytelling campaign for the movement’s Reuse
Revolution.
You’ve always
stood behind storytelling that illuminates
critical issues and offers viewers opportunities
to create a better world. Thank you for helping
us tell a new Story about a world that values
sustainability and justice as much as we value
our Stuff. Support our work with
a contribution today.
Grateful for
all you do,
The Story of
Stuff Team |
