The history of stuff

The Story of Stuff is a polemical animated documentary about the life-cycle of material goods.
Activist Annie Leonard wrote and narrated the film. Tides Foundation, The Funders Workgroup for Sustainable Production and Consumption, Free Range Studios and other foundations funded the film. Free Range Studios produced it. It was first launched online on December 4, 2007.
The documentary is being used in elementary schools, arts programs, and post-graduate economics classes as well as places of worship and corporate sustainability trainings. By February 2009, it had been seen in 228 countries and territories. According to the hosting site as of September 2009, it already had more than 7 million views.
Critics consider the documentary to contain incorrect and misleading information and/or to be politically partisan and liberal; this has led the school board of a Montana school district to ban use of the video in the classroom, citing its regulations on bias as justification.

Silver Man.

Today, while having lunch, listened to the daily lunch. Not pay much attention, but to hear a comment from my father about a story, I decided to repair a few minutes.
The news was about a homeless person who was sleeping in the park Redenção in Porto Alegre RS, and in the morning when he awoke his body was tarred with silver ink, besides being urinated all over his body. A woman passing through the park, outraged, called the police, and then the resident was taken to a hospital to be examined.



Well, this is another example that the world is a place that needs many repairs, starting with these simple things. A person who does so will have that ability to understand what the world needs help? I think not. To begin to change that, people who claim to be "rational" and capable of living in society, must reformulate its ideology on this and their actions must be radically changed. Or animals that are irrational, they act well together, we "human", how do we act?


Reflect.
