Our Choice: Pollution - Vancouver Film School (VFS)

[candyycorpse]

this is so sad :/ it's a law to recycle where i live, but does anyone do it? no. these people should be more strict with laws.

[thedevo01]

@candyycorpse A lot of this depends on parenting. Obviously, you are going to raise your child(ren) to recycle, and so am I. But the generation of our parents' wasn't born at the point of crisis when pollution is actually a threat to our own existence.

It's not exactly fair though, that those who act against it are suffering because of those could never cared less.

[candyycorpse]

@thedevo01 I do agree with you. I learned at an early age, so you're right. hopefully things will get better, though. Maybe people will ~finally~ realize what is going on, and be more cautious with their trash, you know?

[narutoloverz95]

They should air these on TV

[royalwithcheeese]

duuuuuuuude!

[Hunterkirk]

Hey your concerned about the floating trash? As I understand it we have the ability to recycle a lot of that and people even PAY you to do it. Just think how much money you could make if you were to take barge out their and start collecting that stuff. You could be our next Bill Gates! or instead you can make video's complaining about it... your choice.

That very concept was proposed as a multi-year plan by the Japanese long ago, but when they went looking for financial partners, they couldn't convince anyone to get on board. The main reason is that the other Pacific Rim nations (the main contributors to the Pacific Gyre) would not financially gain from the project, only Japan. The project was then shelved. Also, keep in mind that while the Pacific Gyre is the biggest, there is one in every sea.

[Hunterkirk]

Something being "financially gain" can be address in several ways. One is they can find methods to make the collection and processing cheaper. Two they could link the collection with a product people generally want. and lastly they can choose to use the profit as little as it may be to supplement a private interest project of cleaning up the environment.

Since you have all the answers to the problem, why don't you just do it?

[Phantomseeker293]

I spend my summers about 2 hours south of Tokyo, and recycling is INSANE there! They make you recycle everything and its torture because they need people to deliver it to the curb in a certain form and quality (sorted to the degree of being painful).

Not that recycling isn't worthwhile...Its just a pain and definitely more costly (at this time) than harnessing the vast unused resources on earth!

That being said: I still support recycling, especially in large cities. :D

[7r1663rh4ppy]

and yet is anyone doing anything about this?

[littlejay123]

weak transitions

[blenderanim8or]

Whether I agree or not with the message, this was well made and executed. Asn an animator myself, I can appreciate the work that went into it. Good job!

[masperdow]

very good feel and professional logo at the end.

[Zwickel]

fags, VFS ROCKS LOL

[WoWanate]

Very good animation, didn't make me feel any different about my views

[jorgeguberte]

Well done! I like the 3Dish look and feel.

[TheSenseofTouch]

weak video garbage

[wanttodormir]

VERY GOOD! And to all that say something like "I hate greenies" or "I hate this, it is the same over and over again": you know you ain't right, that is why you become so aggressive, but, hey, it is not bad to recognize that humans aren't perfect and that there are some things we have to correct.

[PureRebelM1ko]

wtf is wrong with u? "I hate greenies"?! what the hell!?

[DeStryke51]

but it's also not a valid excuse to allow yourself to do it.

[jesserubberkip]

@PureRebelM1ko Even if you don't like the subject, the video is still well made

[PureRebelM1ko]

yes, but it pointless if the content of the video is redundant.This idea waas around for a looooong time,it's a non-stop bullshit-spreader type of stuff.

[MondayAddams]

why do you think that is?

[andreaacme]

@PureRebelM1ko If you don't like to hear this thing over and over again, why don't you start doing something about it? :)

Once you've mastered this first easy step move to step #2 which is show/teach others how to help as well.

This said .... Nice animation!

[PureRebelM1ko]

Fail. start thinking with your own mind.

[felicianomiko]

Dude's allowed to have an opinion.

I often wonder how accurate the statistics quoted for various things are.

[Lolerichlich]

one word:

good!

[tqvivaperu]

[sparrow111260]

topical yet very well done.
