The Story of Stuff

Catallaxy - May 11, 2008 - 12:55am

Annie Leonard argues in the presentation at the top of her site that the modern means of production and rates of consumption are fatally flawed. She backs up her assertions with some interesting (though US-centric) numbers. I particularly like how every time she refers to the “golden arrow” of consumption, there’s a little “aaah!” sound.

While I agree with some of the things she has to say, there are plenty of other things I take issue with. However, I’m more interested in the opinions of Catallaxians on the presentation. What do you agree with? What do you disagree with. I assume there will be more of the latter.
