Well, as you’ll be able to tell from the music playing in shops at the moment it’s now the season when we buy stuff. So it’s timely that Free Range Studios, who brought us internet movies such as Store Wars and the Meatrix, have now just released The Story of Stuff; a fast-paced, fact-filled exploration of our production and consumption patterns, including how we make stuff, sell it, and then use and disposal of it, as well as its effect on communities at home and abroad as well as on the environment.
It’s 20 minutes long so if you’re at the office you may want to save this one for after work – or ask your boss to watch it with you.

Interesting issue every year isnt it? The economy will go down the drain if we don’t celebrate Jesus’s birth by buying ’stuff’! I guess there’s always something like Oxfam’s ‘unwrapped’ campaign! Or buy someone an experience (like sailing?), or a year pass to…the zoo?
Or just coming together and spending time with one another – one of the most precious commodities of all.

Next you’re going to tell us that Jesus never even said we were supposed to buy each other stuff for his birthday.
