One of our favorite videos that we share when we do presentations is the Story of Stuff. It is concise, moving presentation of the issues that face us in our over consumptive society. The Times article states that many teachers have embraced it for their curriculum.
A warning: The movie is honest and those in denial may be uncomfortable with its portrayal of certain elements of our society.
Check out the NYT article. Then watch the video.
Story of Stuff staff is developing curriculum for middle school and high school based on the video.
