using this vid for a midterm assignment. Needing to cite, would really help if someone could put more info for referencing purposes in the bio block under the video posting. Thx :) (I'm using APA 7 but Im sure others that use Chicago or other would appreciate also!)
I tend to think that this problem is an inherent trait of capitalism and won't be remedied until we can move past capitalism. I wonder though since these problems are becoming more widely acknowledged; do you think we're getting to a point where people are coming back around to true materialism, as in seeking out purely useful items? or are we still on the path of growth for growth's sake?
+Nilbogish i do also think we need to move past those principles. im sick of more than 20% of edible food being thrown away while people in the same neighborhood suffer bc of hunger. its just inefficient.
