Stuff

I came across this site in one of my e-mails. Story of stuff It makes me think twice about some of my Christmas purchases. I gave my parents a Christmas gift food basket with many organic and fair trade goods in it. I guess this is a start.
I do reuse gift bags although I do still like Christmas wrap...I know it's wasteful.
We really are in a throw away society because we want all this stuff. If there were NO DEMAND FOR there would be NO SUPPLY OF. Think about it, this is a common thing taught in business economics. This can also be applied to the war on anything. If there is no need for it, it would not exist. So a NEED has to be CREATED.
