Fun little interactive video, talking about the story behind stuff. Even talks about iPods. Sorry, Global Warming isn't covered though...

Warning: Could be considered "Environmentalist."

her clothes look new...

On a serious note. It was a good video, some really good pointers on their. And she shares my views of government so she gets two thumbs up in my book :2thumbs:

Yes, her clothes did look surprisingly new... And there are a few claims that are rather "Al Gore-ish," like how processors in computers are the only part that makes the operate more effectively. Simplified to the point of stupid.

But, the main message is a good one. We can't sustain this rate of consumption forever. And, if we work less, we can play more, and be more happy! (oh wait, is that simplified to the point of stupid?)
