The Story of Stuff

Posted by Aether under: Community News .

This is intense. Anne Leonard has created a twenty minute video unmasking the reality of our consumer culture. This is truly an eye opening expose regarding the real costs of the stuff in our lives. It makes me think of a bumper sticker I saw the other day that read: The more I know, the less I need.

This is a good one to spread around, as it is accessible and compelling even to hardened skeptics.

Yet with such a magical world as we have made, or discovered, we have no functional cosmology to guide and discipline our human use of all this knowledge and skill and all these energy resources. ~ Thomas Berry
