I love this presentation:

The Story of Stuff

Maybe somebody else does too?
If so, just spread the word...

Hartmut, I just watched this and must say this is one of the most logical, to the point, fact based presentations of the need for humankind to change it's behaviour that I have ever seen. Thank you for the enlightenment. I sent this to 10 coworkers, my wife and 2 kids, and a couple of friends. It really drive home this point: Whereas we all know that we need to change, most people do not know how to change or feel like their contribution would be alone and inconsequential. The truth is, every little thing a person does to help the world is done by many and has a huge impact. Peace, Gil It reminds me of the bumper sticker I saw at so many Dead shows over the years; "Live simply so that others may simply live"

I couldn't have said it better than you did, Gil. Thanks for the words. I felt the same like you when a friend forwarded this to me. Thank you too, Ellery, and everybody else who is going to watch it.
