The Hidden Life of Garbage
This is a short 19-minute documentary about recycling and waste
in the U.S. based on the book of the same name by Heather
Rogers. The film has great facts and a funny archive. It exposes
the often magical (but false) feeling we get from 'helping the
earth' by 'recycling' It also points out the real problems:
over-production and industrial pollution. Plus it explains
corporate greenwashing and our economic system of 'built-in
obsolescence'.
