    Home 2009. One of the best informative movies yet.

    We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth's climate. The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being. For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because Home is a non-profit film. HOME has been made for you : share it! And act for the planet.

    It's a lengthy film at 1 hour 33 minutes, but it is truly an amazing piece of work.

    Watch it in full screen HD to really appriciate it.

    Global warming is but one part of it all.

    It's really about all our problems and ways we can help prevent them.

    The solutions and prototypes mentioned are very ingenious also.


    A fact I found funny is that the Arab States don't even have any Solar panels. While there are antire districts in Germany that are powered by them :P

    The movie mentions the bad, also some of the best the small poor third world counties have done. Many have done more then those that are rich when it comes to helping our planet and keeping us all alive.
