HOME is an ecological documentary by the French Directors Yann Arthus-Bertrand.
This beautifully made movie was shot from a helicopter and was astonishing with the views and realities it provides.
Powerful words and powerful images deliver the truth of today.
Here are some extracts from the movie:
- It takes:100 l water to produce 1 kg of potatoes; 4000 l for 1 kg rice; 13000 l for 1kg of beef.
- In Las Vegas 800-1000 l of water are consumed per person per day. In contrast 500 mln people live in deserts and use water sparingly.
- Nature had carefully packed Carbon underneath the Earth's surface for millions of years. By extracting oil, we are pumping out all the carbon that made our planet a furnace in the past where no life could exist.
Please watch it and spread the word.

The most important thing is that solutions exist. If you don't have time for the whole movie, please check the last 10-15 min, which give the hope that we can restore the balance in our HOME.
