Tuesday Video: Lessons from the Great Depression

Given the slow road to economic recovery - or if we're in a period of recovery, depending on who you talk to - there's a lot to learn from the past. This video demonstrates how the frugalitiy and stimulus that worked in the Great Depression applies to our current situation. Janaia Donaldson of Peak Moment TV sits down her mother, Rowena Donaldson, to talk about her experiences of the Great Depression. It's a reminder that some of the sustainable concepts and green living tips we discuss have precedence- and there's a lot of joy in the simple things in life.
