Great video!! Change comes from within ourselves but it's when we take action that it can endure and be the exemple for others. http://paulorenatoconsultor.blogspot.pt -

I think we need to quit automatically thinking government should solve our problems for us. WE are the government, not the politicians. True, we may have to work with politicians and big business (I don't believe "Corporations" are essentially evil), but we, the people, made these problems. We need to examine all that "stuff" to see what we want and what we actually NEED. Also at the root is the fact that we think "stuff" will make us happy. Its only a temporary "fix." I am wary of militant action and forcing people to do something that may not turn out to be the best avenue. I love the idea of persuasion and a really thinking group who have no power agenda, but only want what is good for our country, our world - to put forth ideas. One at a time might be good. One stable and wise step at a time, no power ploy, no ANGER and unnecessary conflict, and I'm in. -

Change is a big word; the only change that would work for all of us is get rid of the current congress, all of them. When you go to the ballot box dont vote for the incumbent, vote for the new guy, lets brake up the club of incompetence in DC. If ou dont like the new guy, vote him out the next time. Nothing, but nothing can be worse than what is on the hill now, with new ideas and ew people the rest will follow to clean up our country and planet -

The video is well laid out, simple and to the point. I feel that change in this respect is the responsibility of each individual person, and not government or corporations, even though both have the responsibility to adjust and focus on change. Change in these two sectors is difficult, but as the video shows, if people start demanding and taking action both have no choice but to change. Neither can afford to ignore demand, corporations must respond in order to survive, and politicians must be responsive to peoples demands as well. Having said all that, ideally, city, state and the federal governments should take the lead towards change. Realistically, people have to exert pressure for either one of them to get off their rear ends and act. -

Annie Leonard has such a gift for getting to the essence. I am a communicator, nurturer and networker. The film inspired me to focus on these talents and do my part to help all of us take action. Thanks Karma Tube Team. You are the Best!!! -

What inspired you about this video?
I cried through the whole thing. Then had a nice laugh when the cartoon character kicked the corporation out the door! Right on!
Thanks a million! -

This is so well laid out, like train cars leading to the engine where each part of the whole is clearly defined making it exciting and possible for all of us to get to the point of change we want to see in the world. So, action together is the engine of change. I am ready, willing and able to work with others to make the changes I want to see in the world. Thanks for reminding me we all have a particular part to play in a successful, dynamic movement of change. -

- Citizens' action doesn't always have to be an angry protest. Send a note of encouragement to a politician that you feel is doing positive work.
