The 11th Hour

I may neither love the color green nor have plans of turning to be a fan but after watching the 11th Hour, I want to make a mark in saving this blue planet like all those green movement. It did not surprise me a bit though that our planet is almost "destroyed" and that we need to really do something about it - because no one else will.

11th Hour is a documentary that talks about Earth's illnesses and the possible cure.

Nature can stand and survive on its own, unlike us. We really need to make a stand on this and contribute to make this planet alive. I am encouraging those who are reading this to please watch The 11th Hour, be informed about how we're destroying our very own planet Earth and from there, we do something about it.




So, we find ourselves on the brink. It's clear humans have had a devastating impact on our planet's ecological web of life. Because we've waited, because we've turned our backs on nature's warning signs, and because our political and corporate leaders have consistently ignored the overwhelming scientific evidence, the challenges we face are that much more difficult. We are in the environmental age whether we like it or not. So, what does the future look like? We know the United States, the greatest consumer and source of waste, needs to make a transition to a greener future, but will our pivotal generation create a sustainable world in time? What will guide this massive change? And does nature hold the answers we need to help restore our planet's resources, protect our atmosphere, and therefore help all life survive?
