Story of stuff

Today I watched the video presentation named "The story of stuff" by Annie Leonard, the purpose of the video is to let us the consumers get an revelation that we can´t keep the same pace of our consumption, or else the world will get inhabitable for our children to live on.

It´s scary to hear that the US has 5 % of the earth´s population and uses 30 % of the whole worlds natural resources. More scary is that 99% of the stuff you and I buy today are garbage in 6 month.

But what can we do to not let the world be inhabitable for our children to live on? Many things, but keep buying useless stuff is not one of them! Recycling? Sure but today it´s not enough.

We have to let the government, not only here in Sweden but the governments and corporations in each and every country in the whole world get the same revelation as I did and what you get after watching the video by Annie. And then maybe we can do something before it´s all to late.
