The Story of Stuff with Annie Leonard

The video is a bit long (20 minutes)—but caught my attention—and made me resolve to remember to take my bags with me to the grocery store!!

Hmm, I probably should have watched the whole thing... I'm sure there was some great info. on how to help the situation at the end of the show... but the first few minutes tended to be so 'over simplified' and biased, I just couldn't really 'buy in' to what she was saying...

I.E. - in the first few seconds she attempts to set the individual watching the video presentation on an opposed 'team' to that of the Corporation when in fact the vast majority of the individuals watching the video gain their livelihood, or some portion of it, to corporations.

Anyway... I do think there are problems and issues, and they do need resolution - but the whole 'us' and 'them' approach seems misleading - heh, and I should probably not even comment this much with out having watched the whole thing...

oh well - I AM glad you posted it though Becca! I love stuff that sparks conversations!

Wade -out.
