A cute production on the story of things we buy and don't need. Really imformative (but kinda depressing).

a river is a linear system that runs indefinitely on a finite planet (a system of inputs from the t-1 period's run-off which feeds into the t+1 period's future flows, it is very much linear - just in a diff eq sense!). GDP is a measure of gross revenues, profit does not equal gross revenue, it's a apples/oranges comparison. Trees and many natural resources are renewable. Quotes from post WWII were taken out of context and described the nature of capitalism, rather than prescribing the future role of capitalism as ms. leonard implies. If you can't upgrade a computer you either own a mac or a really terrible with computers. seriously. I didn't see any real solutions given in this presentation. Just alarmist attitudes that have made people ignore environmentalism for years and years.
