Bill Nye tackles the kitchen's biggest eco-mysteries, from paper vs. plastic to the environmental impact of non-stick pans. Plus, toothless cows, moody teenagers, an experiment in scientific destruction, and more, on this episode of Stuff Happen.

When the labcoat-bedecked Nye stops by his neighbor's house for some free grub, he discovers a raging battle between an eco-obsessed teenager, her green-hating bro, and their baffled and befuddled mom, who just wants to get some peace in the household, and some dinner on the table. Nye strives to sort out the squabble by taking the clan on an eco-tour of the kitchen, exposing the environmental footprint of the stuff they use every day, and sharing the facts on how to make smart and savvy choices. Watch along at home to see where your pots and pans, wasted food, and all the other trash and treasures in your kitchen, come from, where they are going, and what you can do to make it all greener.

Bill Nye knows the secret lives of all your common kitchen stuff, and he's serving it up on Stuff Happens. Watch this episode for some serious dirt on dentally-challenged cattle, the straight answers to common green kitchen questions, and some cool science surprises as the man in the long white labcoat "reverse engineers" a common kitchen item with explosive results.
