Earth Day

To celebrate Earth Day here are a few films you should check out. Remember, our Earth is a beautiful place and all living creatures are amazing. Let's keep the planet beautiful so that our children can witness what a miracle it is to be here.

Earth Days
This film explores how Earth Day began. The 1950's and 70's were amazing times that changed the world. Director, Robert Stone, captures it all for us to see. Including never before seen footage, the film shows the true environmental crisis we faced back then and are still facing today.



Dirt
Directors Bill Benenson and Gene Rosow, shed some light on all of us about the Earth's soil. How important it is and how we are destroying it. The way we treat dirt affects us all. Jaime Lee Curtis narrates this educational and eye opening documentary about how precious dirt really is.



Planet Earth
How could I not suggest this phenomenal series. Produced by the BBC and shown on the Discovery Channel here in the United States, this breathtaking production is far beyond the others. If you haven't seen it than please do. It is so worth watching!



The 11th Hour
With all the global disasters we have seen over our lifetime it is no surprise that Earth is unhappy with us. The 11th hour explores this issue. How we are destroying the planet and what will happen if we don't stop. Leonardo DiCaprio narrates this thrilling documentary on what could happen next unless we start changing today. Joining him are many professionals and scientists like Stephen Hawking that hope to shed some light on how we see life.



So check these few films out and get a little closer to loving the planet.
