HOME - Press Conference May 5th 2009

In 200,000 years on Earth, humanity has upset the balance of the planet, established by nearly four billion years of evolution. The price to pay is high, but it's too late to be a pessimist: humanity has barely ten years to reverse the trend, become aware of the full extent of its spoliation of the Earth's riches and change its patterns of consumption.

By bringing us unique footage from over fifty countries, all seen from the air, by sharing with us his wonder and his concern, with this film Yann Arthus-Bertrand lays a foundation stone for the edifice that, together, we must rebuild.

On the occasion of WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY on June 5th 2009, HOME will be the FIRST movie to be released simultaneously on ALL MEDIA (Theatre, TV, DVD, and Internet) and across 5 CONTINENTS.

On June 5th, we all have a date with the planet!

Thank you!

[PerfectDecalibration]

How about we just kill all the people who want to depopulate the planet. They want to do it, they are the ones who need to be treated. Yes, that would solve our problems very well...

@BosnianMilitia Definetly a big thanks I had no idea how much farming had to do with this crises we are faced with. I had only figured it was mainly to do with gasses being emitted from our cars an factorys.

@dayceem Get rid of money, redistribute resources, raise the global intellect of the population. Understand what resources exist and utilize them efficiently. Replace fossil fuels with clean free reusable emery sources. Get rid of the profit system. The resources must be shared and distributed amongst all the world's people. make education the central focus of our societal structure, sustain population through greater understanding and eduction.

@Hodge209 We need a Resource Based Economy. You said one thing right, get rid of money. But we don't have to go back to horse and cart, when you have solar, wind, tidal, geothermal and wave power to name but a few. The problem is that once the fossil fuel sector is squashed the monetary system dies with it. Solar energy is free and cannot be sold over time. New technology provides for greater efficiency these are enemies of the monetary system, which is in competition with our planet.
