Journey to Planet Earth: Not Bourne Supremacy

This film below has Matt Damon doing some of the talk overs - but this is not part four of that Bourne Trilogy - although we can at times perhaps wish for a 'hero' to sort out the mess.... this 90 min film is just released and based on Lester Brown’s Plan B book series - it does have some of the answers. Do we have the political will yet? Still the answer is clearly 'no' but it is astonishing how public opinion and governments can act - it is still possible.

This film by award-winning film producers Marilyn and Hal Weiner, follows Lester as he speaks in various cities and visits world leaders to discuss ways to respond to the challenges of climate change. The film starts with some shocking stuff than can surely leave those not wanting to 'believe' in climate change little doubt about what is going on...this is not so much an Inconviennient Truth as a Totally Dire Truth....worth a watch even for those who are familiar with this stuff - although I get a little fed up with all the repeated scenes of Lester addressing various halls...but then again reassuring to see the message reaching so many....

Needs a slightly stronger 'mental health warning' - the usual globalist / corporatist agenda that as always overlooks the low cost mutually inclusive solutions. A scam promo for Bwankers, GMOs, WTO & Nuclear Industry ...
