Planet Report

Our planet is 4,600 billion years old, but imagine for a moment that it's only 46...

        # life began in the oceans 4 years ago;

        # dinaussaurs appeared (and disappeared) last year;

        # modern man arrived 4 hours ago;

        # 1 hour ago he learned how to farm;

        # 1 minute ago machines and industry began;

        # in the last 60 seconds man has

                                                        » polluted the air, sea and land;

                                                        » used most of the Earth's oil, gas and coal;

                                                        » completly killed more than 500 kinds of animals, birds and plants;

                                                        » made and used atomic bombs;

                                                        » grown in numbers from 1 billion (in 1830) to nearly 6 billion today.

It’s a disaster, which is still happening...

It’s very simple: either we stop killing the Earth or we will kill ourselves.

Today, many scientists and world leaders have already realized that the Earth is in danger.

A documentary

Home 

Shot in 54 countries and 120 locations over 217 days, Home presents the many wonders of planet Earth from an entirely aerial perspective.

As such, we are afforded the unique opportunity to witness our changing environment from an entirely new vantage point.

In our 200,000 years on Earth, humanity has hopelessly upset Mother Nature's delicate balance. Some experts claim that we have less than ten years to change our patterns of consumption and reverse the trend before the damage is irreversible

Produced to inspire action and encourage thoughtful debate, Home poses the prospect that unless we act quickly, we risk losing the only home we may ever have.
