Film about STUFF

I saw this riveting 20 minute film The Story of Stuff by Annie Leonard. It is scary, though-provoking and brutally honest. I talks about how the relentless consumerism of the developed world and in particular of the US is costing the environment and the whole world dearly. The US has 5% of the world's population, but consumes about a third of the world's resources and produces about that proportion of the world's waste as well.

It also talks about how the US exploits people and resources in the developing nations for its own profit, how it outsources all it's undesirable manufacturing processes and some other home truths as well.

This award winning film was well worth the 20 minutes i spent watching it.
