First of all, if there are 6 stars, this documentary is 6 stars. Even if it is 10 stars, it is also worth 10 stars. It should be a work that can reach full stars under any standard. So I'm really surprised that there will be 4 stars and 3 stars, let alone people who don't know what mental obstacles will give 1 star maliciously.
This documentary should be placed in theaters. It is worth tens of billions of dollars at the box office, or even hundreds of billions. It should be a must-see documentary for everyone, and you can't even watch it only once in your life. It is the essence that should be edited and played in the city continuously in order to achieve the purpose of brainwashing people. It should be a documentary that every country organizes and compels the people to watch.
The first half of the film looks back at most of the father's life, letting us know that his 70 years in his career have witnessed the earth-shattering changes in nature and the imminent crisis. In the second half, the old man began to talk about the rescue method.
In fact, I really don’t agree with the second half of the old man. I think the old man really deals with nature all his life. On the contrary, I forgot how to deal with people, and what every ordinary person is like, or the old man has always been with elite-level people. When dealing with, I think it can represent the ideas of all ordinary people. The fact is that the old man became completely idealistic in the end.
If you really make suggestions and are really radical, the old man should say that the first thing to do is to halve the population, not to slow down population growth. No matter you talk about all kinds of problems such as destroying nature, destroying the ocean, destroying ecology, destroying plants and animals, your source must be humans, and why do humans do this because there are too many people and fewer things. Because the animals, plants, fish and energy that a person needs in his life are amazing. If you reduce the population by half, everything on the earth, including humans, will take a breath, but no one will call for such a thing. To say such a thing, even if it is the truth, is the simplest, most effective and most useful method for all living beings.
Secondly, the old man talked about the leading consciousness of so many countries, but would you dare to come and pat on TC? As one of the most populous countries and a rapidly developing country, it is still advocating having a second child. The father naively regards the inhabitants of the earth as people in a global village, but the actual situation is that the inhabitants of the earth are citizens of hundreds of countries, and countries have to compete with each other, what is needed is economic development, and what is needed is the number of people. What you really want to say is that humans should stop conquering diseases, no longer seek longevity, but truly accept death, truly accept the arrival of birth, aging, sickness and death, and that everyone can choose life and death freely before their body rapidly declines at around 60, instead of staying and breathing.

Also, the times are really different now. If you forcibly show this documentary to people who are not interested and force them to watch it, they may not want to watch it. The so-called happiness has been completely captured, and most of the younger generation can no longer accept the information of the long video. This documentary does not know how many years it will reach the 100,000 mark.
In addition, the old man is only thinking about the ecological crisis, but the crisis is more than that simple. If the information is comprehensive enough, we are facing a natural crisis, a crisis of climate, a crisis of resources, a crisis of war, and a crisis of population. It may even be a biochemical crisis, a social media crisis, a nuclear weapon crisis, and even if human acceptance is sufficient, we may even encounter an alien crisis.
We have survived so many crises, but the vast majority of people are not aware of these crises at all. Everyone can't see, hear, or even pretend not to know, not interested, and don't want to know. Is humanity really saved?
The only thing I agree with the old man in the second half is that within 100 years, there is a high probability that we will see the real outbreak of any one of these crises, and then human society will suffer a devastating blow.
When I am alive, I believe I can see it.
