This 20-minute video is primarily about consumerism; however, it nicely demonstrates globalization and the Dependency Theory that was discussed in class on Wednesday, September 22nd. The goal of The Story of Stuff is to "amplify public discourse on a series of environmental, social and economic concerns and facilitate the growing Story of Stuff community's involvement in strategic efforts to build a more sustainable and just world."
I know you are all busy and 20 minutes feels like a lot of time, but this is worth it!
