I have a copy and have watched it a few times. I think like many films of this genre that it offers more questions than answers - you get a glimmer of an idea about something that might be useful but not enough detail to be able to use it. But I guess it is a good starting point to get people thinking about what passes their lips....
Documentaries such as this are very much needed to educate the general population. Bringing the message in a medium the general public can understand is fantastic and I encourage the viewing of such films. If it provokes soul searching or further enquiry by an individual, it has achieved it's goal. sun burn - can you verify the information in the documentary contains BS? If so, what parts? Or is it a flagrant opinion based on watching a trailer? Thank you for taking the time to make the offer tonip.
Standing Ovation Hi Sunburn, I was so surprised by your comment. Both Sydney and Noosa Permaculture groups gave the film a standing ovation so it hit the mark with many. Sure it is not the be all and end all and does not have all the answers. It does make people think and question though... and we all need to do that. Thanks for the other comments......
