http://www.storyofstuff.com/ an informative 20 minute video that goes into the history of consumerism, the affects of it and has some great (and horrifying) statistics.
I was so moved by the video that I took a pleadge not to vanity shop for myself for one year! Please visit my blog at greenbarbara.blogspot.com and read about my journey through a shop-less year. Thank you, Barbara
I think it is a very good movie, that shows in a short time what's happening with stuff. I showed it to some friends wich liked the movie also very much. i made a thread about the story of stuff earlyer here: http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=278508 also there was a thread posted a day before my post in the subforum protest. would be cool that more people see this movie, or make posts about it in the same thread so it is more talking-about-able.
