Superb, Joyce! Some of the images are gorgeous, some, very disturbing. We need more Green films like yours! Fab documentary by Lovins.

Hey Joyce you rock

Joyce,
Great job! Your piece moves in a vital direction of making sustainability profitable - which demands much more attention in order to get major companies on board to then pressure government. Keep up the good work!
Peace,
Evan

Joyce.... wonderful film. A must see for all. I would love to see more of Hunter's messages in the future. This is such a timely directive.
Thank you. Corinne

Beautifully shot and well-composed; professional and compelling. The idea that "the earth will be fine; it's human survival we're talking about" is a great point that I haven't yet heard.

This was wonderful Joyce. It was visually appealing and thought provoking.
I loved it.

Fantastic job Joyce! When so we start to see more films like this on PBS?
Posted by: Alex Lavidge | March 2, 2007 10:42 PM
Awesome job Joyce! (great message, great short, great subject matter) I love the reference that states "Oh the earth will be just fine, it will just shake the humans off 'like a bad case of fleas'" - rock on!
Posted by: J.T. Brown III | March 3, 2007 12:22 AM
This video contains a great message. Keep up the good job, Joyce.
The audio level is up & down, which is the one thing the could use improvement.

Hi Joyce,
This is inspiring. short, simple clear. I heard you interview Anodea Judith on the radio on her new book.
Good work!

Great video! Hunter Lovins is wonderful! Very thought provoking and inspirational!

Joyce, This is certainly a critical topic. Your film is captivating! I love the background music and the photography. Thank you for presenting the idea of opportunities for companies to be innovative and profitable in a "green way". Wishing you continued inspiration.

What impresses me most is the degree of intensity that you communicated in such a short timeframe. Your cinematography demonstrates your genine, innate artistry. Yet you are careful to let the "message" outdo the McLuhan "massage" that sucg images could potentially trip over. This video would be an excellent trailer for a longer program or film even as it stands on its own. Looking forward tgo your future work in this medium.

Great job Joyce-love the images and it conveys a lot in a short amount of time. Audio can be a little low at times but really enjoyed watching it. Keep up the wonderful work,

Great job on the video, images, and message! I really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work and best of luck.

Great video. I think you should post this on www.friction.tv to stimulate the debate

Hi Joyce, The fact that I was moved to turn around in my chair and check to see if any unneeded lights had been left on while I was watching the video, is a testament to the power of the message of your film! What captured my attention immediately, was the line, "the earth will be fine, it is the people who may not survive!" Oh so true! Thank you and Hunter for sharing this powerful message.
Posted by: Kathy Ward | March 8, 2007 5:02 PM
Hi Joyce,
This is a much needed message that must be distributed and seen by a wide audience. I'll certainly do my part to spread the word. Excellent job. Thanks for sharing such an inspiring and thought provoking film.

Hey Joyce,
Nice work. I've got the CFB, got a grease-car, and am using wind power.
I'm the converted -- the most important question of our time is not what to do, but how to create political expediency. Because time is running out.
Posted by: Joseph Olejak | March 9, 2007 12:17 PM
Great job, Joyce! We need more people like you to spread the word. Keep up the good work!

Joyce,
In two minutes you captured the disturbing mess we are creating. I can see your delema with the mass amount of images, but you did a great job of getting to 2 minutes and still making the content have meaning. I wonder if your longer version has some of an in-depth look at the solutions and how they are being accepted by the population at large.
Check out this link for a new car that runs on air. You just go to your local gas station and on 3 minutes of compressed air you can travel 200 miles. I want one!

Much love and support to you and your continued work on this subject and the human condition for us all reaching new levels of aliveness.
Love,
Andy

We are indeed an endangered species, but that's primarily because there are far too many of us. Yes, individuals can turn off lights and other devices when not using them. And yes, businesses can become more environmentally friendly with innovated products, etc. My worry is, is that not everyone can afford it - new products have to be affordable to everyone globally. Then the environment may have a chance.
Posted by: fiona | March 10, 2007 1:10 PM
What a great presentation! in 2 min touched all the bases and set the attitude that "we can do this". Agree w/ earlier comment re: McLuhan, and that this would be a great trailer for longer, related, presentation. see
To all involved- Thanks for all the good work expressed in this short film.
