CGI and cutting-edge climate computer models helped viewers see into the future at a world significantly changed by unchecked global warming.

HOME
Home breaks your heart with the beauty of the nature that we are killing. Breathtaking.
The footage in this movie is stunning. It's mesmerizing.
From the website:
We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10
years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural
resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth's climate.
The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.
For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because Home is a non-profit film.
HOME has been made for you : share it! And act for the planet.

This is accomplished with the use of spectacular weather stock footage combined with sate of the art CGI effects to show the viewer just what kind of weather conditions humankind would be faced with after runaway global warming.

Everything's Cool
Everything's Cool tells the harrowing story of what it takes to talk about global warming -- the art of duking it out with collective denial, the struggle to communicate the urgency of the crisis to an indifferent public and a laggard United States government. We follow a cadre of messengers who are passionate, exasperated, driven by fear, hope and a deep appreciation for the ever shrinking window of time we have to stop global warming. THE STORY AS IT IS EVOLVING We take to the road with veteran global warming messenger and author Ross Gelbspan, as he launches "Boling Point" -- his "last" and "final" book on the issue. We are behind the scenes at the Weather Channel for the education of Dr. Heidi Cullen, a climatologist cum television personality, who has the unique and often excruciating task of reporting and/explaining climate change in sound-bites fit for a primetime audience.
