Who've watched this video only coz of Gemma?

[phillips78]

The most environmentally friendly thing a rich person (or anyone for that matter) can do is to choose voluntarily have a smaller family.

[KaylaComb]

That is a very cute boy! He looks like Cilian Murphy.

[MageAtYou]

3:38 she's gorgeous :)

[Dougster]

Why do all the adults have to be so rude?

[luuuuuciano]

It would be great to see it with several language subtitles, for kids that do not understand english

[mojoj87]

about discovering new species

[UPKODINS]

I suddenly have to urge to go to a museum ;D

[TheOblivionGate]

I love Gemma Arterton, she is the woman of my dreams.

[wongthegreat]

[yurianne07]

[TheZequitube]

I was expecting they steal his liver at the end

[DinosaurRyan]

This is amazing! This has made me want to discover more about the natural world's past!

[111theflash]

People are causing the world's enviormental problems, we need less people... Jk jk

[Quusboy]

gemma arterton walks in. no way in hell is that little boy leaving the museum now that she's here.

[Cerberus2k7]

Now I want to watch more Planet Earth.

[TheSonorama21]

I watched a 20 minute video about mountain gorillas before. there are about 750 left, but that number is rising. there's still hope?

[TeamHollowHowl]

@groovestylemusic

Scientists have to find new species in remote places in the world, lets just say the rainforests, before they are destroyed so then we can conserve the new species

[elsathelioness]

Wildlife and habitat conservation is so critical. There are so many losing time on this earth. We can save them now!

[cetaceandreamsaustra]

Very well done. If only we can temper our lifestyles to preserve the future.

Unfortunately we tend to treat the planet, much like a credit card. Play today, but pay tomorrow

[TerraCycleFr]

Thanks for this video ! Very nice one ! It's gonna be shared and retweeted !See you !

[f00768500]

A wonderous little tale, with a cautionary msg... and not in the least bit preachy!

[doloresmary13]

Uh... she kinda spoiled the mood showing the video in a tiny iPhone screen. Award: most obvious product placement in a fictional movie.

[DJkoh]

the best museum in the world :)

[DesignPunkStudios]

This was absolutely amazing! Just shared it with 299 people :)

[UsedByMyOwn]

"now imagine something much bigger.. ten times bigger at least"

our world could be much bigger than what we've thought and there is still so much to discover. if we preserve what we've got, we have chance to find it and conserve it.

for a living planet.

[leleuuc]

I love my city (Manaus), I love my country (Brazil) and I love my world!

[mackoybgt]

I think I;ve heard this song in a movie but I forget what movie. anyway, WWF probably should make another film, not a short film tho. because everybody go to the cinema and film is an effective way to make millions of people realize that our nature is dying.

[ilmaff]

@mackoybgt check WWF movie about nature in Indonesia, see it on youtube: /watch?v=8ZVPUp3vhCE ,

i luv Indonesia.

[legocreatoroo7]

[CnJClips]

@legocreatoroo7 thats pretty cool. lucky you

[carson1482]

@groovestylemusic dont be such a winging veggie bastard!!

PREACHY PREACHY PREACHY

[groovestylemusic]

I was truly astonished. Discover new species? Yes, so that we can exploit & destroy them just like all of the others? The ONLY hope for new species is if we leave them undiscovered. I can't believe WWF are so myopic. Sorry.

[WWFunitedkingdom]

@groovestylemusic Locating and recording new species is vital for conservation - as many species become extinct due to habitat loss and humanity's impact on the planet, we need to study what's left to understand their role in the ecosystem so that we can preserve biodiversity - it's only by understanding can we find the solutions. Julia at WWF

[nostolgia]

@WWFunitedkingdom I agree with Groovestylemusic. The enviornment of this place was like a zoo or a science lab, and that is the enviornment we are taking these new found animals into. We need to let them be instead of running tests on them or even bothering them at all.

[ReptilianShapeshifte]

@WWFunitedkingdom

You should fight to protect the rain-forests in Brazil, President Dilma recently approved the destruction of 400,000 hectares or forest to build a new hydroelectric plant. Not only might there be undiscovered species but there are also uncontacted human tribes still living there.

[windowsromania2011]

congratulations to Stephen Poliakoff and to Charles Sturridge for this nice short film, i really liked it

[phillips78]

Nice film. There is an easy solution to the issue of environmental impact by humans in the film "One Planet One Child".

[kaluchkin0]

i love planet ♥ i loveu all :)

so what is the name of soundtrack?

[WWFunitedkingdom]

@kaluchkin0 thanks! The M=music is by Adrian Johnston and mixed by Steve Parr, Julia at WWF

[kaluchkin0]
