The eleventh hour is urging the viewer that the time for action is now and that such an opportunity may never reoccur the world is in our hands yet it still controls us it’s the environment that sustains our life not the other way around, and so if we don’t act it may be a legacy generations from now will recognise as the last straw a time when we had a chance and instead decided selfishly to put ourselves before our planet. You don’t need to be an environmentalist to appreciate this film or to act in your daily lives. Each person can make a difference and this difference maybe the most important democratic decision we make in our lifetimes. After all ‘we did not inherit this world from our parents, we are borrowing it from our children’.
‘Global warming is not only the number one environmental challenge we face today, but one of the most important issues facing all of humanity ... We all have to do our part to raise awareness about global warming and the problems we as a people face in promoting a sustainable environmental future for our planet.’ Once again global warming can be a fight that can unite humankind in brotherhood because lets face it we are classifiable by one thing and that is belonging to the human race.
Being a designer I feel that my products should not only be environmentally sound but the must try to increase awareness about environmental issues wether it be packaging or my blog/personal website this issue is one that cannot be swept under the rug it can no longer be used as a political lever and action must be taken by every strata of society to take small daily steps to change our world.
