3 friends. 50 States. One wild year! Called to action by a planet in peril, three friends hit the road - traveling America with hope, humor . . . and all of their garbage for the year - to explore the good, the bad, and the weird across every state in search of the extraordinary innovators and courageous citizens who are tackling humanity's greatest environmental crises. As the YERT team layers outlandish eco-challenges onto their year-long quest, an unexpected turn of events throws the project for a loop in this award-winning docu-comedy. Featuring Bill McKibben, Wes Jackson, Will Allen, Janine Benyus, Joel Salatin, David Orr, and music by Ben Sollee, Mark Geary and more.

We've got over 60 other short films already available at http://www.yert.com . Enjoy-- and please DONATE if you like what you see: http://yert.com/donate.php

    Keep an eye out for selective pre-screening events this fall. We'll be showing large chunks at the 2010 Bioneers Conference in Marin, CA (just north of San Francisco).

    All this panic over global warming is silly. There really is NOTHING that we humans can do to stop it. How silly is it to think that we can change the weather? On an entire planet? Come on! As has been said many times before, CO2 has a relatively minor influence on climate, and humans have a relatively minor influence on CO2.

    If indeed the earth is warming (which I believe it is—after all, where I live used to be glacier-covered) then I welcome the challenges and opportunities this brings.

    Saying co2 causes climate change is a total scam! They say when co2 rises, then temperature rises - it's the other way round! Human annual co2 output = 29 billion tonnes, Natures annual co2 output = 750 billion tonnes!!! Heck - all the same I love the work of these Yertians - I want to live in a world free of toxic fossil fuels too!

    There are solutions as the YERTians point out. However, the rest of humanity would rather stick their fingers in their ears and continue on the path to destruction.

    Humans have had fair notice of what awaits.
