In this stop-motion short film, psychologist Tim Kasser explains how the modern culture of consumerism threatens our personal, social, and environmental well-being.
Tim Kasser points out that when we buy into the ever-present marketing messages that living “the good life” actually means buying “goods” without end, not only do our levels of happiness and empathy decrease, but we also waste Earth’s natural resources.
This animation film is not just a critique of materialism and consumerism — it is also a guide towards a more healthier and sustainable life for the benefit of every being on our planet.
