Today in class we're watching a short video called The Story of Stuff, which is an overview of where all of our goods come from, how they are converted from raw materials into products, how those products are distributed to us, and where the eventually end up. I'll warn you that there is a lot of information packed into this video, and it comes pretty fast, so you'll really have to pay attention! Try not to get lost in the details, and try to find the overall messages in the video.
Here is a link to the video: The Story of Stuff
Click on the "Movies" dropdown and choose The Story of Stuff.
After the video, we are choosing partners for small discussion groups.
Here is a link to the discussion questions: Discussion Questions
If you were absent from class, please watch the video, and try to answer the discussion questions. We will continue this discussion tomorrow in class too.
