VIDEO REFLECTION

The story of stuff

After watched this video i learned material economy, and some social issues in our society.
  1.  We have too much material waste in our society, which lead our society have too much pollution. 
  2. People has a lot of products today but the national happiness going down.
  3. The recycle issue .
For the waste material and chemical are really affect my mind , i am learning design course , dose here have some smart idea to solve those problem. As very great business man says : in the 21st century, young people have duty to solve the social issue .

As a design student ,when i design a product i have to deeply think about  how my design can makes people happy . how long my design can last in peoples' normal life . is it useful or just design for dump.

In the recycle part , in my follow projects i will very carefully think about how to let my products become the true recycle and as simple as it can be .

The story of electronics  

I really like the sentence in this video :  DESIGN TO LAST. From this video i have learned some social issues about the electronics .
  1. In now days , technology developing very quickly. However , the electronics waste is a big issue in our life 
  2. Electronic products are contain toxic which harmful to human's life.
Electronic waste issue. in the video show in the Europe , factories are take the waste electronics products back.it is really great idea. However , i am think about :in the Japan , if people want to chuck away the electronic products , they need to pay the fee. For example. if a family want to chuck a 10 years old fridge they pay very expansive fee which nearly same price as a new fridge. This is really brilliant idea to stop people shopping new electronics . Can government come up a rule that all the Factory need to take the electronics their electronics products and consumer need to pay the recycle fee to Factory. Further more , government should educate all the people , that we need to take responsibility for our next generation. save the natural resources and protect our environment.

For the toxic products , as a design student i will carefully choose the materials  avoid  use all the toxic materials . 

 The story of cosmetics 

In this video here has so many unsafe products and here have no particular law to protect health . In the long run , it is very necessary for government come up new laws.
As a design student, here has not much i can do , only thing i can do is , when i design the packaging high light  the harmful elements.

 The story of bottle water 

After watching this video i have learned about water bottle
  1. The bottle made by oil 
  2. The bloody bottle water's companies seducing us , scaring us and misleading us to buy the water bottle.
  3. How the water be recycled 
  4. How the government treat the water bottle pollution issue .
It is really luxury use oil to making the water bottle, oil is limit nature resources ! As a design student , what i can do is designing new packaging for bottle water.

It is lack moral for the factories to  seducing us , scaring us and misleading us to buy their products. A good business should not do that . in my opinion , government should let school add courses about how people takes responsibility for environment , human health , ect .So ,when the students graduate from school to society they will burden other. which means whatever job their are doing in the future , they will not seducing,scaring and misleading people for the money purpose.

I am really sick about how they recycle the bottles, put rubbish to other countries! it is not a right way to recycle it . what a design student can do is find 100% recyclable material instead of using oil to making bottles or design a new green packaging for the bottle water.

For the government, they should do what video suggested.This is peoples' word not few government officer's world , they should pay attention to hearing people's voice .
