There's a great book called Stuff: The Secret Lives of Everyday Things
by John Ryan and Alan Durning. They trace coffee, newspaper, t-shirt,
shoes, bike and car, computer, hamburger, French fries and cola. It's
put out by

They also have a curriculum guide on their website where the book is
mentioned.

Sounds like a great project for young people.  Any ideas for Alison?

I am a HS teacher. My students are researching their ecological
footprint.
Each one picked a consumer product and is tracing it back to it's
natural
resources, and the origin of these raw materials. Can you suggest
resources
for us?  Thanks
