WORTH CONSUMING!
The Story of Stuff is a Flash-based, 20-minute short that ties in with a larger website. Maybe it is a bit ironic to be mentioning it here on a site called “All Consuming” when it talks about all of the problems with our culture of consumption. But it does a good job of covering a huge topic in 20 minutes. Those who have seen An Inconvenient Truth (I haven’t) probably won’t learn anything new, and those who dismiss left-wing calls to action out-of-hand will probably dismiss this, too.
