Author, activist and social entrepreneur Evan Sutter is at it again with another controversial and highly thought-provoking talk. He tackles our consumer culture and its work in creating lacklustre human beings that just think like everyone else, who lead lives of quiet desperation, choosing things over experiences and TV over friendship. He calls for 3 radical changes in order to cultivate good lives worth living, ones that enrich our lives and the ones of those around us. He analyses how our addiction to working so much has left us addicted to shopping, and led us to a self-centred world that doesn’t care much about anything but ourselves. He calls for real activism, and proposes some simple actions, to actually enjoy our lives before we’re dead.
