Shopping: The Choices We Make

	Affluenza (video) 56 min., 5th grade to adult, A spoof TV special/documentary that takes a look at our over-consumptive, materialistic society.

	Escape from Affluenza (video) sequel, 56min., 5th grade to adult, an excellent documentary showing how many people from all walks of life are scaling down their spending habits to attain a better quality of life and do less damage to the environment. The people interviewed give ideas on how to reduce consumption and live with "voluntary simplicity". I highly recommend this tape; it's better than the first video.
