The group for all Edenbees.

This is a great video. It predicts the shape of tomorrow's successful economy (if we're going to have an economy at all!) which will be 'circular' as old resources get turned into new resources for people and nature.
See www.blindspot.org.uk for the economic tools needed to make this happen globally. Let's hope the politicians pick this up fast.

I watched the Story of Stuff about a week ago and I think the video is really impressive. I never thought about all the rubbish I'm producing, but now I do.
It's important that people watch this video because it shows them what's wrong with their behaviour, so that they can change it! -
WOW, I just watched Story of Stuff after you all talked about it so much, & I must admit it's really great!!
I knew most of the stuff already, but it's really presented in a great way for someone who hasn't been aware of it yet - without pointing fingers or such, with humor & respect & enthusiasm!! (I admire the people who made it!! - I'd probably wanna strangle some 'innocent' government officials beforehand, or meanwhile!! but it's really important to do this in a friendly cheerful inspiring way!!)
So this is sort of giving me ideas.. but I could never be as cheerful about it, alas!! :)I really started researching & doing 'Zero Waste' a year ago or so, after an incinerator was anounced here.. (There weren't any before.. yuck!!)
I shudder every time I go into a shop & see people buy utter rubbish... (possibly terribly unhealthy utter rubbish too!!)So... I'm glad people & companies & videos like Storyofstuff exist...!! :)

cool, that video really reminds you of whats going on behind the scenes. i highly recommend checking out freecycle.com for anyone who wants to give away or get "stuff" for free. its an amazing resource for recycling xx
