This 20-minute animation video is a great introduction to Environmental Management Systems (EMS), Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD). Annie Leonard explains the unsustainable five-step production system (Extraction, Production, Distribution, Consumption and Disposal) that drives global economies.

I think this movie reinforces the worry that our World is way too materialistic and selfish. We need to start looking after the whole worlds needs, instead of our own. Stop being selfish, because we share the world with a lot of people.

a key idea that the movie gave was that as people we are making too much waste and using and producing too much toxins and creating more problems for our selves.

The Story of Stuff really makes you appreciate how much of a consumer driven society we are and how much of a complex task changing this is going to be…

Annie’s message is very confronting and a bit depresssing until the what can be done section. Its well worth seeing, though.
