less than 20 seconds of this video actually discusses anything solution related. The rest is just a sarcastic barrage against everything from biofuels to hybrid cars. This isn't great content - it just helps apathetic people to continue believing that ignoring the whole thing is okay. Too bad the people who made this movie couldn't use their considerable talent to actually promote some useful action instead.

no actually it is a great video, because it draws attention to the growing problem of greenwashing, whereby individuals tout themselves as green while still adhering to consumer mentality ideals and in reality still adding to the problem, and to our greater detriment, businesses like Pepsi-Cola and Waste Management can use the green movement as a marketing tool, while continuing to engage in harmful and destructive business practices.

It is the cultural idealogy of consumerism that needs to change, if the Green movement is to be more significant than as simply the latest catchphrase.

I thought it was great, and it gave me some good humor-therapy. Some of the greenwashing out there makes me so mad. I do think the film gives a message: don't just consume greener; consume less! A very important message that just isn't getting out enough, even to those trying to do the right thing.

Remember the three R's? REDUCE was always first! I think I may have purchased my last new vehicle...makes you think!

Thanks for putting this together. Unfortunately, cynicism is required and effective to push back against the damage that greenwashing is doing. Pseustainability forever!

"Land wasted on peasants becomes land for energy." Ha ha! Really good little video - the best satire of bourgeois environmentalism I've seen.

This is great, ever changing lines, we need to stay awake, and keep asking ourselves is this the best I can do. If we marry the planet, and make that our reference.

For-profit Global Corporations stop at nothing to increase their ever insatiable appetites for more money and market share. Green is the next target for marketers to spin us into consumption, waste and debt. Mind what green we spend on "Green" and don't be green, be informed. The Prius is a great example, but it is only one. We're being spun and spun. Great vid!

maybe the video should make YOU think of a solution, instead of of just offering them up for consumption.
