The Story of Stuff

Congrats on finishing AP Micro! We've learned a lot of good economics so far. But it's not the whole picture...

The Story of Stuff reveals the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world. It'll teach you something, it'll make you laugh, and it just may change the way you look at all the stuff in your life forever.

Please watch this video and post your thoughtful comments. How does it present another side of microeconomics and the market? What bias or agenda does the presenter seem to have? Does she influence your own decisions about your consumption? What specific change might you make in your lifestyle in response to this video, if any?
