Story of Stuff, Full Version; How Things Work, About Stuff

From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. The Story of Stuff exposes 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.

If you update your desktop computer every year you a fucking idiot, besides most motherboards are built with sockets that support the next year or so's architecture, unless of course you are using a mac. XD XD XD XD XD

its not only that people are greedy. but some governments are in some deep shit.

take the US government for example, it is owned by corporations.

[BlazingFlameFilms]

Hey, you shut your face, the goverment doesn't care about the starving people over in third world countries, or all of the resorses they're using up, all they care about is money. Money, money, MONEY! Not justice, or education, or stuff like that. Money. That's all they care about. Get it through your head.

[BlazingFlameFilms]

I agree! I'm a 6th grader as well, and I can under stand this perfectly! What I personally think is that the goverment doesn't care about the resorses, the people, or the envorment. All they care about is money. MONEY, MONEY MONEY! That's all that matters now adays, money. So all they want, is money. And its not just america, -I'm canadian btw- every goverement only cares about money.

cont...It wasn't easy to escape the US though. I mean, me and my family are just your typical US citizens with an average US income, so we didn't have much. All we had was are 3 cars, 5 teleivision sets, 5 computers (one for each kid), our high speed broadband internet, our Time Warner DVR's (one for each kid), our stereos and radios (1 for each kid), a few hundred video games, thousands of dollars in furniture, dishes, jewelry, two freezers stocked full of food, fully stocked cabinets...

[klesks8686]

Oh yeah, Communist countries are far better for the average citizen than countries like America where there are rich people who own capital and it not fair. I'm a refugee from the United States myself, me and my some of my family managed to escape to Cuba in hopes of a better life. it's not as nice as north Korea or the former USSR would have been, but we're just happy we escaped the endless despair of life in the United States where there are rich people who have capital and it not fair.

Who wants equity for all humanity? Communists, that's who. And they're all going to hell for it. bacon and cheese

I came here to understand the history of stuff...I learned about how our culture is killing the planet. This video is riddled with bias and political slander
