Stuff happens!

Over at the Daily Kos site, there is a great post about a creative, powerful 20-minute film called The Story of Stuff about the flow of resources through our consumer society. Kos contributer Devilstower writes:

The time I spent watching this video was well worth it. Do a favor for yourself, your children, your grandchildren, your great-grandchildren, etc., and watch this video. Then pass it along to a friend, a teacher, a teenager, anyone who cares about this planet and our quality of life.
