National Geographic has a special on TV this evening called Human Footprint. But I don't get National Geographic with my rabbit ears/slim cable, so I cruised over to the website and voila - all the stuff is right there, interactive, readable and I can digest it all a bit at a time.

Here's a little video clip on waste. 15 tons of plastic per person in a lifetime on average. Wow, that really drives home another reason to take your canvas bag again and again to the farmer's market, eh?

The student film finalists are pretty fun, too.
