Stuff

The video of the girl talking about the process of production of many objects we use and we dispose of, but we never really end up getting rid of it. Its called the materials economy, that is when something moves through a system from extraction, production, to distribution, consumption, to disposal. Extraction is where the material we need to build, production is where we make the product, distribution is where we sell it, consumption is where we buy the product, and disposal is where we get rid of and throw away all the hard work to make it and they only sold it for a fraction of the price. This video hasn't really changed my life in anyway it just makes me think a little different about what I buy and how I will take care of it to help the earth become a better place
