Although there is a general trend in our societies towards an awareness of ecological issues, concrete action is still too little, too slow—which constitutes in some ways the creed of the movie: It&#8217;s too late to be a pessimist. But Home is more than a documentary with a message, it&#8217;s a magnificent movie in its own right. Every breathtaking shot shows the Earth—our Earth—as we have never seen it before. Every image seems to be saying, &#8220;Look how beautiful the Earth is, look at what we&#8217;re destroying, and above all look at all these wonders that we can still preserve.&#8221; When I started working on the project with Yann, I was convinced that the idea of shooting a movie entirely from up in the sky, without [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What are the legal and human rights implications of climate change? As the evidence becomes stronger and the science more serious, people in countries, companies, institutions and professions everywhere are taking up the issue of climate change and sounding the alarm. Among these concerned global citizens are lawyers and legal professionals. To gather this community together, law students at the University of Washington organized a conference called Three Degrees: The Law of Climate Change and Human Rights Conference. On May 28 and 29, members of the legal community and others came together to further explore the possibility of using human rights law as a way to address climate change. According to the conference organizers, &#8220;the application of both codified and customary international and national human rights law will be critical in addressing the massive humanitarian crises ignored by technical market solutions to climate change and moderate political reforms.&#8221; Read more at Worldchanging&#8230; People who looked at this item also looked at&#8230; Climate Collaboratorium: Harnessing Collective Intelligence to Address Climate Change Issues Green Economy Initiative Related items HOME: It&#8217;s Too Late To Be A Pessimist Green Economy Initiative Earth Hour How our economy is killing the Earth The Climate for Change]]></description>
