Earth Whisperers

I went to my first movie premiere last night. Earth Whisperers was a great documentary movie that caught the personalities of each of the people who talked about their passion - some aspect of the New Zealand Environment. This varied from healers through to organic gardeners to people who have saved large tracts of native bush or restored them. It is well worth a look if you get the opportunity. I must say it is nice to see an environmental movie that provides inspiration rather than documenting the problems we face. Each of these people have done what they did because of the problems that they see and have made a difference in very tangible ways.

Sounds great - I'll look out for it, though it may not make it to South Africa! Have you seen The Power of Community - How Cuba survived Peak Oil? (Not entirely sure of the subtitle, but it's something like that.) Also worth seeing - and also a positive movie about people who did manage to deal with their environmental challenge - not least by slowing down, as you said in another post.
