I recently saw this amazing film called “Home”. It is a documentary by the french photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand, a man specialized in aerial photos, his book “Earth from above” is a wonderful collection of 365 pictures of all sorts of places on Earth.
This film is an ecological documentary in which the story is told mainly by the beautiful images, and it’s about how humans are exploiting planet Earth, using up all the non-renewable energy without thinking of the consequences.
It is a very good film to show to young people as well, it is very simple and straighforward.
However hard “normal” people try to be as green as they can, the governments are so tied up by the interest of big companies that are extremely slow in doing anything, and quite often the steps they take are just silly or ineffective.
But the laziness of the governments should not stop each one of us to try and do our best, even if we are doing it with a huge feeling of frustration.
Whatever happen next, we’ll all be paying the price of what we have done.
The author gave up his rights and you can watch it online, I recommend it strongly.
Writing about this film made me a bit gloomy, oh dear!
Outside is all covered in snow.
Good night
