This week I had the opportunity to take in the movie "Home" on a very large screen (viewed on YouTube in its entirety at http://youtu.be/jqxENMKaeCU). It is stunning. The photography is incredible. The message powerful. In the last 3000 years we have basically dessimated what took billions of years to create. And in the last 60 years, during which time the population of the planet has tripled, that devastation of Planet Earth, our "Home" has been the worst. Yet we are left in the movie with a thread of hope as people around the world take on the task of creating change in our behavours, patterns, consumption.
Coincidentally the next morning I was sent this shorter version (4 minutes), titled "She's Alive... Beautiful... Finite... Hurting... Worthy Dying for." There are segments from "Home" and other dramatic footage of the beauty of this incredible planet, put to breathing, just as we breathe. It is rivetting. May you too be moved!
