Stuff


This has to be one of my favorite pictures this year.

A picture that shows all the possessions of this particular family in China. They have to be one of the greenest and most earth-friendly families around.

If we were to do the same, how much stuff will fill the picture?

For starter, a dozen pair of shoes, 3-4 suitcases of clothing and accessories, 5-6 boxes filled with electronic gadgets, a truck load of home appliances and sports equipment, plus crates filled with books and toys... it will probably take days to lay them all out before a picture can be taken.

Think about it.

There is a book on Amazon with the same idea:
Material World, A Global Family Portrait
