The history of stuff

final

There are people who fight to save the forests, for clean production, fighting for labor rights, fair trade, conscious consumption or blocking landfills and incinerators and most importantly they fight for governments to be of the people and for the people.l

We must create a new system but one that is not linear but that does not discard either products or people.

The growth of the business has provoked that the government worry more about the business that the people.

The government has the obligation of the help to the people, but later come the business, and the business are more bigs that the government.

Of the one hundred bigest economis, fifty five are business.

The stuffs has a sistem: The economy of stuffs

Discard

Recycling is efficacious, but even if we recycled 100% of our garbage we would not solve this problem.

Much of the garbage cannot be recycled because of its toxics or because it has not been manufactured to be recycled.

Each bucket of water we generate is produced 60 to generate everything from that bucket.

this process is very harmful as it generates new supertoxins (dioxins)

This process pollutes the air, soil, water and contributes to climate change.

All that trash goes to a big hole in the ground or if not first it goes to an incinerator and then to a big fill hole in the ground.

In the U.S. every citizen produces 2.5 kg of garbage a day.

consumption

President Eisenhower said the end of our economy is to produce more consumer goods.

programmed obsolescence

designed to be discarded

perceived obsolescence

tries to make you see that you have to buy something you don't need.

that consuming is the future and that we need to consume faster and faster.

Victor lebow say (summarised)

An American uses twice as many products as 50 years ago.

99% of the products we buy after six months we have already thrown them away to buy new ones.

we have become a nation of consumers.

Distribution

Entrepreneurs outsource real production costs

We're not really paying for what we buy.

The distribution is sell as soon as possible the toxic products

Production

In the production the workers are the most afected, because they inhale the toxic chemicals.

The breast milk is the product with the highest level of the different toxics. Our babys recibed the highest level of toxic chemicals.

Today we use 100.000 contaminated products

In this part we use the materials that we put in the extraction and we use energi to combine with toxic chemicals to produce contaminated productes.

Extraction

In the lasts three

This is the first limit, we are exhaust resources

Is a elegant form to say exploit the naturals resources
