This documentary is not at all in the definition of "good-looking", because most of the footage comes from past documentaries, and it is more like a "last words" monologue of Attenborough.
After all, he has lived on this planet for more than 90 years, traveled through almost all countries in the world, witnessed the changes in the natural environment and the survival of animals and plants, and left us a message in the final journey of life, hoping to continue to influence the coexistence of mankind and the earth. The relationship is awe-inspiring.
Although researchers can predict that the world will enter a wasteland period in the next hundred years at such a speed that humans affect the earth. But environmental awareness is actually one of human behavior patterns. Since it is human activity and behavior, it can be understood in economics. (In case of indecision, use economics)
It can be expected that with the reduction of species and the deterioration of the environment, the benefits of continued fishing, hunting, and logging will become smaller and the costs will become greater. Humans are born to weigh, and weighing is also the starting point of economics. The "alternative plan" came into being.
The various sustainability solutions mentioned by the old man in the second half of the film have been implemented in our country for many years so that we are all familiar with it (this is why the latter part looks so friendly), returning farmland to forests, banning fishing and fishing, and developing new ones. Energy and so on. I believe that in the near future, the problems of energy and materials can be solved. In short, we don't need to be too disappointed in human beings and despair in the world. Our children can still live well on the earth.
Thank you Mr. Attenborough for sharing his life mileage.
