Found this awesome video on Digg: Story of Stuff. It’s a 10 or 20 minute video about production, the supply chain, and consumption suitable for children’s education but with the truth instead of abstractions and suspiciously missing value judgements that I fear most educational material features.
I didn’t think I needed to sit through it, but it was really charming and unfortunately the topics covered probably aren’t as obvious to most as they should be. Check it out.
