    HOME. (1hr 33min.)

    Incredible expose of humanity, its consumption of natural resources and the disparity between rich and poor caused as a result of the current global economic system.

    If short on time, skip to 23:00 for a commentary on energy followed by incredible visuals on Shanghai and Dubai shortly after.

    A must see. -Largo.


    "and above all...Oil...pockets of sunlight"




    Trailer only (for full movie see above link): 2min.

    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.

    This was a BEAUTIFUL video with gorgeous cinematography. I watched it and kept wondering who put up the money for such a production. I had a feeling the UN had something to do with it. It leads the innocent viewer to ask themselves, "who is going to organize us and make sure we donīt destroy ourselves?" Donīt get me wrong, I am a firm believer that each and every one of us needs to take steps to reduce our consumption and educate ourselves on how to live sustainably. But, I donīt think the answer is global environmental police.

    This dovetails nicely with EJ's next bubble prediction. It would appear that the propaganda is ramping up for the "environmental solution".

    Check out the funding... PPR Group which brings you high end consumer goods (gucci, Yves St. Lauren, etc.).

          Just watched it with my 6 year old son. The message of course was over his head but the vivid cinematography kept him on the hook - I'm going to save it and hopefully later on he'll want to watch it again, then later on again.

          Who is going to save us from ourselves you might say? Each one of us both individually and collectively is my short answer. A practicing alcoholic will only decide to take measures for change after he has hit his own personal "hard bottom". Do enough of us as a whole see/feel the bottom yet?

          To what extent are climate changes due to past/recent/ongoing solar activity?

          Anyone have more info and insight on the Siberian methane?

          Now I feel like a school kid on a roll so I'll stop there.

            At the end she keeps saying I’ve seen I’ve seen.
            Has she seen 123!
