I struggle with my desire to be more environmentally friendly and my need for comfort and well, stuff. I also do daily battle with all the stuff in my house.... I wouldn't have to spend so much time de-cluttering if I didn't have as much. I saw this video several months ago, and I really thought it was a great simple way to explain the impact our need for "stuff" has on the environment. Since watching this short film, I have made the conscious choice to consume less - we often forget that the first of the 3 Rs of Recycling is to REDUCE! It is a US based analysis, and a little "left leaning", but now those sensitive to that have been warned - still watch it - it will make you question what you buy and bring into your home. So, from girlfriend to girlfriend, take the time to watch this video clip, it's worth it!
