Watch No Impact Man: The Documentary Description :
Follow the Manhattan-based Beavan family as they abandon their high consumption 5th Avenue lifestyle and try to live a year while making no net environmental impact.
Maybe the guy is a bit of a whatever you want to call him. BUT he deserves credit for making an extremely honest attempt at reducing his and his family's "footprint" on the planet. While we are facing serious climate change and witness loss of resources and food supply and WE STILL HAVEN'T CHANGED OUR CONSUMPTIVE PATTERNS, we see this dude here making such a real effort to subsist in one of the most over-consumptive and least eco-friendly communities on the planet.... NYC. Sure, he may be a dweeb or whatever but he's got some serious balls and he's calling us all out. For real.
i suppose it wasn't coked-out-quick-fix-enraged-action-packed-shoot-em-dead enough for you? Or perhaps it wasn't watered-down-misinformed-feed-the-people-what-they-want-to-hear-and-what-we-want-them-to-consume enough for you? Please, correct me if i'm mistaken. i'm just wondering.
Who ever made this Documentary made it wrong, other then that it is pretty good, next time get a better director and producer! The sad truth is that society has brainwashed most of mankind that it is a right to waste as much as you can, the rest of the world be damned. People will demean you for trying to live your life in a greener way, because it make them feel guilty for not caring if the world gets polluted and other people die because our personal waste or our very limited resources.
Whats with the bad reviews? I thought this doc was great! There was nothing stupid or boring about it. I was very surprised to see that the no-impact family were being soo critisized throuhout their project. They were doing a good thing to spread awareness about the environmental impact that each and every one of us has. And instead of just talking and writing about it, they were actually living it. But I think the most important thing that was acheived was the overall awareness they spread, despite the critisism. People will always try and fight you when you present change, that is just the way it is and has always been. But deep down, ppl know that they have to change the way they consume and little by little, ppl are waking up.
my family and I have already been doing a lot of these things for a few years now.we eat 100% organic and have 4 huge recycle bins, one for all paper products, one for plastic, one for all metals, and a Bio bin. but than again we live in Germany and its the law to recycle all those things and it makes me feel good doing so. We even have a special place to take all the glass to. and at our grocery stores there are no bags, you have to bring your own and you can bring back about 90% of all you used containers to get a refund, then they will reuse them. our villages and cities are powered by windmills and most people have solar panels on their houses. and with the solar panels your neighbors can use your left over energy and the power company will pay you the same as what they would be making if your neighbors were getting it from the wind mills. so thats $$ in your pocket. everyone walks here, rides bikes. We hardly ever see fat or over weight people. and everyone is happy and healthy. I dont see why Americans are so thrown back by the ideal of being green. And the whole green house gases thing is a load of bull! most of it is just a natural process the world goes through but its common sense that we cant keep cutting down all the trees and we cant depend on oil forever and that the chemicals we put in our body's and the water supplie is so not good at any aspect. Its really easy to live green and if your raised this way, you dont even think about it. 10/10 for me folks.
Informative, Interesting, But Also Low Budget Boring
I have to admit, 15 minutes into the film I had to take a break. It was not gripping my interest. However, I did learn a lot about 'green living', which is an interest to me, and I did want to see what the end result was of their documentary.
It could have been produced better, however the educational value of the documentary was well invested.
