The film “The 11th hour” written by Nadia Conners, Leila Conners Petersen and Leonardo DiCaprio came 2007 in the cinemas.
This movie shows us different points of views from very well know scientist, environmental activists and Nobel Prize winners. They all give us their opinion about the climate change and how we can change in our life.In the documentary there is layer a special view on the economy and how we use the resources of the nature. It can be clearly seen that after the industrial revolution the whole life on earth changed. We now see us not as a part of the nature and use the resources like never before. And in the change we forget that we are a part of the nature and that is not a resource which can be used as if it regenerates it by itself. In this section there is one particular resource of our life presented, the oil. We use it everywhere it is getting a big problem.
Another huge problem which is mentioned in “The 11th hour” is the climate change, also known as global warming. This problem effects everybody of us because of the climate change we lose “the control of the nature” we cannot do anything to get back the control.
As can see all actors are trying to show us what happens when we continue living like that. We will ruin our own biotope. They try to wake us up and say that we have to change our live. We have to invest in renewable energies and if there is something wrong we have to look inside our self and try to change it, because we are responsible for the world and not the other way round.
In my opinion climate change is a topic that is interesting for everybody because it is influencing our whole life and our economy. The best example can be seen in the fuel prices they go up and down, it depends on several factors. And in the future they will only go higher and higher because the resources are at one point expended. This will be the point where we see what we did so far with our nature. We take THE resource for the humans, and the question will what happens then?
So we have nowadays already to look for alternatives, but not any solution is good. We have to look for solutions which save our world. They must be environmentally friendly and the must help to stop the climate change, so that people can live a long time an acceptable life on the planet earth.
And we cannot give the responsibility for that to our government; we all have to do something against the change. We have to start saving energy were it is possible, we have to lower our CO2-emissions as far as possible, we have to look deep in our self and say what we can do to help the world, because we are all responsible for it.
