I was going to share this over the Xmas holidays, but I got too involved with the stuff I got for Xmas. So instead sharing the story of stuff, I was moving stuff over to my new stuff.
Ok, I fess. I was also going on the assumption that instead of reading blogs, you were also off playing with your stuff.
Now, one of the reasons I wanted to share The Story of Stuff movie is because the stuff I got for Xmas comes into it.
I actually thought I was being good by only getting two things for Xmas.
I didn’t realise I was being bad until I was sent this link from Greenpeace. Well, not actually from Greenpeace. I was sent both links by my good bud Errol Saldanha.
Thanks Errol ;-)
About The Story of Stuff:
The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns, with a special focus on the United States. All the stuff in our lives, beginning from the extraction of the resources to make it, through its production, sale, use and disposal, affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues and calls for all of us 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.
It did. And I’m looking at my shiny new stuff right now. And it’s looking right back at me (gotta love iChat, yes?)
Hey, after you watch the movie, be sure to check out the
The Story of Stuff blog.
So on that note, here’s a Merry Xmas (belated) and a Happy (belated) New Year to all …

<< I live in Japan now and a mere 30 something percent of the food is domestically produced.
I lived in Japan years ago and it was the same. Very expensive imports and all.
Johan, Thanks for sharing the clip.
