With contributions from over 50 politicians, scientists, and environmental activists, including former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, physicist Stephen Hawking, Nobel Prize winner Wangari Maathai, and journalist Paul Hawken, the film documents the grave problems facing the planet's life systems.

Global warming, deforestation, mass species extinction, and depletion of the oceans' habitats are all addressed. The film's premise is that the future of humanity is in jeopardy. The film proposes potential solutions to these problems by calling for restorative action by the reshaping and rethinking of global human activity through technology, social responsibility and conservation.

Not all scientists agree on the fact that global warming is an immediate threat. Although every scientist in this movie apparently does. Every expert interviewed stressed the fact that human involvement in the fight against global warming is mandatory. This is due to the fact that the increased anthropogenic cycle is pinned down as the main cause of climate change in the movie.

The role of humans in the destruction of the environment is explained from the viewpoint of several different professional fields: environmental scientists, oceanographers, economic historians, medical specialists, etc. The best example of this came from philosopher Wade Davis who theorized that to people, “You are either a person or property,” referring to mankind’s view on land and natural resource.

  1. Not all scientists agree on the fact that global warming is an immediate threat. Although every scientist in this movie apparently does. Why is this statement in here? It's very misleading, indicating that the contributing scientists were cherry picked for their biased views. It's a fact that 99% plus of the climate science community agrees the climate crisis is an immediate threat to human survival.

  4. We have ways to dramatically change course and live better. Even facing 98% change of death we will stay on course unless there is an alternative. Today there is

  5. Well I misspelled a few words but what I am trying to share is that we really are closer to destruction than most of us realize but there is hope!!!

  6. This is as I said one of the most enlightening movies ever,along with Zeitgeist The Movie & the two sequels "Addendum" and "Moving Forward" says it all,plus a movie Collapse with Michael Ruppert gives me a sense of responsibility to share and spread the word on what is happening to destroy our home planet earth. These are not only descriptions but also prescriptions as to what all of us can do to save our home this planet earth. I have a sense of responsibility share what I know to any one who cares not only about now but our children but future generations for and to whomever is willing to be enlightened about how far we really are for destructin

  7. This was a very enlightening movie for me. It not only describes but also prescribes what we can all do at this late date to save our home this planet earth. I have seen others Zeitgeist the Movie plus the two additional sequels
    Addendum, and Moving Forward which can be seen in their entirety online.
    In all I have a sense of hope,but a feeling to spread the word. One more film
    with Michael Ruppert called Collapse. Now I have not just a feeling but a responsibity to spread what I know to whomever will listen.

  8. I'm surprised that this could only show a trailer. This seems like a project that would like to be heard no matter what. Not sure what the purpose of making this film was, to make money or to influence human behavior to save our planet.

  9. The truth is in reality as it has always been we will not accept that we are killing our world until we have, we will all just go on believing that our impact on the world is not as bad as they say it is. We as humans never do anything about anything until it is to late. We will all end up like the Dinosaurs.
    And millions of years later mother Earth will have healed herself from the damage that we have done. And the world will be as intended clean and peaceful...

  10. With greater effort, I will ask my political representative., what are they doing in the various levels of government to help the environment for our own good?

    Also, I have added this documentary to my facebook wall, hoping it will help in some way in bringing about greater awareness and action on this pressing isue.

    A lack of awreness and sensitivity by the genral public to the perils of environmental damage is making the situation more gloomy and critical.

  11. There are only two kinds of life a human can live ,material life or spiritual life .
    Because the materialists ignore Krishna they live a problematic and suffering life.Whilst they only desire material life ,Krishna kindly fulfils their desires and they are reincarnated in the material worlds as one of the 8,400,000 species.In every life there is birth ,decease, old age and death.
    A spiritualist follows Krishna's trascendental knowledge ,reducing their Karma and suffering and develops a desire for the spiritual worlds ,their original home ,where life is eternal.
    It does not matter how the materialists try and fix this world they will always be denying Krishna and bringing about more karma,new problems and more suffering upon themselves.
    So there is much more to life than this material life .Why do you want birth decease old age and death so much ?
    If you want to fix the world Krishna left us complete instructions on how we should live . Krishna is perfect and the Vedas are a vast source of knowledge.Materialists have imperfect senses and have a poor fund of knowledge.
    A Krishna Consciousness life is for the benefit of the world .

  16. Its about the time to stop saying 'we' and 'us' and substitute instead 'I' and 'me'. Or is that too scarey?

  17. A man in the video says we could make small changes such as keeping our tires properly inflated to help curb this enormous problem because every little bit helps. **** that st*pidity. That is but a grain of sand on a vast beach. We live in a social mechanism (capitalism) that depends on eternal expansion, that can only survive through raping our earth of resources, polluting it and churning out cheap products that are meant to cease functioning shortly after production so the consumer has to continue to consume. Poverty and hunger have only increased since the 1960's and it continues to increase. Wealth is held in fewer and fewer hands. Capitalism simply cannot function on a planet with finite resources. China and India have just now reached their industrial revolutions and their vast populations want the "standard of living" that Americans have enjoyed. Try telling them to curb pollution and waste. We have a political system where lobbying, campaign contributions and monetary gifts are protected by law as "expressions of speech". Money drives our political decisions. We can only choose between two people who are selected by corporations to become president. We HAVE to find renewable energy, destroy capitalism and take the money out of politics if humans are meant to survive. It is not a Chinese problem, a Muslim problem, a woman's problem or any other sect of mankind. It is a human problem. Is the ability to have a faster car, a bigger house, or a more expensive purse more important than having natural resources and life? So why are we not doing anything drastic about it? We face extinction unless we address it.

  18. To learn to love the place where you live ... kinda hard to do if you are not living in California :) I think you guys should change your immigration laws so to not require professional degree and experience in destroying the earth, but proof of certain amount of hippysim and maybe a test on do you shop groceries at monterey market or Luckys :)

  19. global warming is a scam, and everyone should know that. I believe in natural climate change. They airbrush everything about the climate. Carbon dioxide is a small percentage of greenhouse gases. The Ocean emits more c02 itself than people driving around in suv's. Its clearly time to wake up people.

  21. The only fact presented in this video was that the human population is growing. Particularly enjoyed the part when a scientist noted the type of warming we are seeing also occurred prior to humans .. That is right .. PRIOR to humans. You mean this is not a Human problem? Thanks for clarifying. I was very disappointed. I fully support the reduction of waste and pesticides and found this video to be aimed more at the heart = dramatic pictures over facts and graphics. Sad. If it wasn't for Leo, no one would take note of this video.

    Great movie and great motivation for me to keep writting my student work about environmental co-operation in region where I live. I hope that environmental movements will be getting more popular and stronger as it was with suffrage and other movements which existing is for us fundamental today.
