“Earth and Me”, a planetarium film created in 2011, provides a picture of the impact that 7 billion people have on Earth.
Chaos theory states that a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can cause a storm in Texas. What would be the effect of more than 7 billion butterflies on Earth? Human activity has a detrimental effect on Earth’s systems (climate, ecosystems, biodiversity). Its impact can be seen not only in nature itself, but also in the food we eat, the medicines we use, and even our health. Without resorting to alarmism, the film “Earth and Me” addresses each of these complex issues by presenting scientific data, encouraging the audience to reflect on individual responsibility and action.
“The Earth and me” was written and directed by Guy Brochard & Eugenia Tiktapanidou, based on an idea by Dionysis Simopoulos, and is a co-production of the Eugenides Foundation. & the Animonautes
