  1. A little bit over simplified (especially the part about one tiny piece of a computer changing every year), bit all in all a great message. The best parts are towards the end, so just set aside the time to watch the whole thing.

  4. i know that i shared this widely about 8 months ago, but since someone posted an indirect link to it just today, i figured wtf? might as well try and get it back on the popular page again with my 1000+ new Mixx friends since 8 months ago!

    this is something everyone on Earth should see, in fact i'm gonna watch it again tonight.

  6. Great presentation for the lowest common denominator. The one thing that they fail to tell in this piece is that if we don't start to fix this ourselves then nature will take care of it for us by making us go away. Nature is really well equipped at finding balance when things go out of kilter. The message shouldn't be "Save the Planet" cause the planet will save itself. Rather the message should be "Save the Planet for our Use before the Planet has no Use for Us" as that is really the issue here.
