The Story of Stuff
A friend of mine just created an animation called The Story of Stuff. It's a 20-minute encapsulation of how we in the rich countries end up with loads of cheap consumer items that we don't really need (and which we then toss out as ever-larger mounds of trash). Best of all, it offers alternatives.
I highly recommend watching the whole thing. If you don't have a spare 20 minutes in your life, that's something worth pondering in and of itself. But if you really want something shorter, here are a few teasers:
Teaser #1
Teaser #2
Teaser #3

The Story of Stuff has been mentioned to me several times so it's getting around. There's a fellow in Chiengmai, Thailand who showed it to a group of monks during his talk on the footprint of a monk.
