Documentary "HOME" Tells the Story of Life on Earth

My wife and I watched a wonderful documentary called “HOME” last night, in which actress Glenn Close narrates a truly spectacular piece on the history of life on our mother planet. I’ve linked to the YouTube version, but I recommend doing what we did: seeing it on a larger, high-definition screen; the visuals are just as spectacular as the story itself. In essence: the miracle of life occurred here about four billion years ago, Homo sapiens about 200,000 years ago, and agrarian society about 10,000 years ago. Now, beginning only a century or so ago with the discovery and exploitation of fossil fuels, our impact on the environment grows exponentially.

HOME’s producers wrote:

We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, (and to) avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth’s climate.

The stakes are high for our children and us. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.
