What do you think people should be aware of?
 
I hope this doesn't sound too much like a drunk ramble (my sober ones are bad enough and I'm definitely not sober tonight)
but I am an information junkie, I like hearing/reading/learning things that make me question things. The more profound the better.

My three things that come to mind are:

This is water

A graduation speech from America IIRC but it is more profound than most.

The next is a book, Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely well worth a read as it makes you more conscious of manipulation and gives a new perspective

This last one is a little "brainwashy" as it repeats the key phrase a few too many times IMHO but I found it interesting and you can spot it's usage in everyday life:

There's various different versions of this knocking about if you search for the 'Jar of Life', but this is one:

other people.

if everyone treated strangers how they would like to be treated then the world might just start to become a nicer place. instead though we seem to have a 'bubble syndrome' in the western world. it's learning to burst your bubble and treat people nice.

throw of the shackles and chains of consumerism and be yourself.

How many fish have to be minced up to produce a kilo of 'farmed' salmon.

How many sharks are being killed just to make shark fin soup.

How few fish there are left in the sea.
