Annie Leonard has been schooling us on landfill waste, electronic waste, and general environmental irresponsibility since 2010. Her famous “The Story of Stuff” video was a well articulated and accurate rundown of how we affect the planet and the environment through nothing other than our habits of consumer consumption. The film concludes with a call for a green ‘race to the top’ where designers compete to make long-lasting, toxic-free products that are fully and easily recyclable.

The best part about these videos is how simply they address the issue, but they also uncover some hard truths about e-waste, it’s manufacturing process, and how everything ultimately has an impact on the environment. As an example, did you know workers making computer chips are 40% more likely to suffer miscarriages, and deal with higher instances of various cancers?

You can see some of the other videos that Annie offers here, as well.
