Did you know that June 5th was World Environment Day? This year's World Environment Day occurred on a Friday and featured a major event. An awareness documentary called "Home" was released on Friday simultaneously in 100 countries. According to an article by Anne Chaon of AFP, it is documentary about saving the planet brought to you by director/photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand.
The director said in the article that "the idea is to explain what's happening to the planet by beginning at the beginning, by the miracle of life on earth." It took three years to complete and features stunning aerial shots. He said of his desire to complete the film that "although there's a general trend towards an awareness of ecological issues, concrete action is still too little, too slow." In an attempt to maximize awareness, the complete film is available for FREE viewing online until June 14!
