The story of stuff

So I've been quite curious about where all my 'stuff' comes from that I talked about in my last blog.

In conversations with a few friends I realised I really didn't know much about the complexities of how we get our 'stuff' and where all the demand for 'stuff' comes from. So many questions...so I decided to get onto the net and have a look!

For the next step of my understanding, this website was incredibly useful. The 'Story of Stuff', a short video which launches the focusses and understanding of the organisation and website, looks at the production line of how we get all our stuff, how we produce it, what effects this has on people, the environment, the economy and who controls it at each point.

Check it out http://www.storyofstuff.com/

And once you have read it go to the 'Another Way' page and have a read. Yes you are one person, but it looks like even one little person can make a pretty big impact.

Enjoy...then share the story with your friends!
