John de Graaf: Buyer be Fair

A screening of the documentary film, Buyer be Fair: The Promise of Product Certification. Can we globalize in ways that treat people fairly and respect the environment? How can consumers and retailers make choices that make a difference? Can lessons from timber and coffee be applied to other products? Compelling stories and exquisite images raise these questions in a powerful documentary.

John de Graaf speaks on issues of over-consumption. He is co-author of the best-selling "Affluenza" and has worked with KCTS-TV for 23 years, as an independent producer of documentaries.
