    I have not watched this documentary and I am sure it is a very truthful and noble thing but it seems once again to be laying the blame and potential solution on the ordinary person when in truth the largest 100 corporations are responsible for about 75 percent of all environmental damage and greenhouse gases.

      Hi! This documentary touches on personal as well as systematic change, so it’s not blaming the ordinary person. It also focuses on the other areas of sustainability, such as deforestation, land use, fresh water use, biodiversity loss, and ocean dead zones. It acknowledges it’s far behind burning fossil fuels for emissions.

      Definitely give it a watch!

    Eating Our Way to Extinction takes us on an adventure to multiple different countries, exploring the impacts of our eating choices on our climate and the environment. With Kate Winslet narrating, beautiful drone footage, and an original score, it’s the most powerful documentary on the environment I’ve ever seen.

    For those that have seen it - what did you think?
