A short film about the forests in Ohio, USA. It shows how the forests bring prosperity when left alive. The return of forests brings hope and wealth to local communities. Lester Brown claims we should be reforesting 150 million hectares in order to reforest the Earth - plenty of work to do! It would increase the soil fertility, create wealth, halt desertification, mitigate against climate change, stabilise soil erosion and provide habitats for wildlife. Lets hope we see more of this in the decade ahead.
Eloquently weaves the science of global warming with Al Gore’s personal history and lifelong commitment to reversing the effects of global climate change. A longtime advocate for the environment, Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in a thoughtful and compelling way. Watch the shots of the melting glaciers, especially Patagonia! The film is not a story of despair but rather a rallying cry. Click on the image for the trailer.
