The 11th Hour
The film addresses the real issues. Not only is global warming a problem, but the real problem is American consumerism gone mad. The presentors are scientists, writers, ex-government, and lay-people. The facts are not the focus, as was the case in Al Gore's film. Leo focuses on the responsibility of each individual to educate his/herself and take action-any action. People are not attacked for not caring, but rather it is pointed out that our government currently gives more rights to corporations than to the natural world. Until we believe we are at a crucial stage in our planet's environmental health, and until we force government to change the way it does business, we will continue to destroy our planets resources that sustain human life.
The end focuses on solutions, which I was ready for about halfway through the film, but some people need to be hit over the head, I guess. Anyway, a film just as important as An Inconvenient Truth. Spread the word...
