Podcast
I absolutely loved in the Alex Steffen- Ideas Worth Spreading Podcast. He informs you and makes you aware of things and adds a little bit of humor. I loved when he talked about how our society was built and how it's the most prosperous and dynamic the world has ever created. Having these characteristics we also have some "major" flaws. The picture of the footprint on the land representing our societys ecological footprint shows that there is a certain amount of impact on the planet. Alex Steffen tells us that we leave a tremendous amount of "stuff" and waste behind us (so true) in unsustainable levels. He really puts it in perspective for us when he says we are using up about FIVE planets! And if everyone lived the way we do it would take 5-10 planets to make it! I agree that our planet is being used in unfair ways and North America should be ashamed for being so high up on the chart he shows us....
