I like that it seems like such a high quality production for a movie about a topic of such high importance and urgency. We seem to be so focused on fighting CO2 and global warming that other massive issues are passing us by. This being one of them. Even though these are somewhat related issues, I'd say controlling CO2 will be a lot easier than controlling the consumption and waste habits of humans. At least CO2 is a natural gas that can be reabsorbed into biomass through rehabilitating forests and degraded landscapes (ie plant trees!). Non-biodegradable waste on the other hand isn't going anywhere and will be way more challenging to reuse, recycle, clean up, hide away and eventually control completely.
