I invite all of you to go to this site and watch this. its only 20 minutes, extremely informative and fascinating. its about the environment and before you decide to ignore this, it is not fanatical or absurd like a lot of tree hugger/environmentalist stuff can be.
I am interested to see how the method of presentation in “the story of stuff” has on people other than my self. I found it VERY simple, but VERY effective. it is a sharp contrast to the bombardment of media/text/images/sound we usually receive nowadays from computers/Web, television, etc. However, I am sure the people who made the video have done much research on the best way to win people over through compelling advertising (even though this site is advertising a cause not a thing) and maybe they are pulling the wool over my eyes through their unique and simple way of presentation but i was won over just the same. in such a complicated, busy world, this presentation was the breathe of fresh air that the host calls for.
