The Story of Stuff
It was shocking
to learn that only 1% of stuff is still being used a mere six months
after purchase. Yikes! Great video, 20 minutes long. It's at
www.storyofstuff.com
and you can watch it for free.
The homepage
states, "From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the
stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most
of this is hidden from view.
The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at
the underside of our production and consumption patterns. The Story
of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of
environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a
more sustainable and just world. It'll teach you something, it'll
make you laugh, and it just may change the way you look at all the
stuff in your life forever." |
