Directed by Liese Dart
How one woman's idea in North Freedom, Wisconsin changed an entire industry and made a whole nation look for a tiny little number
Description
Meet Millie Zantow, 86, resident of North Freedom, Wisconsin and an environmental hero -- at one point she was the only person sorting plastic in America.
