The Story of Stuff with Annie Leonard is a wonderful website that my good friend Yoshiko has shared with me this weekend. Please do check out the video. It breaks lots of great information down into a quick 20-minute video that is easy to understand. This not only makes me want to pursue my “compact” living more, but also make me to want start researching more ways to consume less.

 

 

You can watch the video on their homepage. Or download it from their Downloads page. I urge you to spread the word and share it with friends and family. We can do this together before it is too late. Stop mindlessly consuming goods that are disposable, or does not have a long shelf life. And learn to really recycle. The Story of Stuff website also has a page dedicated on 10 things you can do to help with the problem.

The teaser below shows you a little bit of what is covered. Enjoy.
