Anger-inducing (shocking that the fossil fuel industry can continue to get away with such causing such global devastation), profoundly moving, and ultimately galvanising. We all need to ACT now.

This is a documentary everyone MUST see. Don't ignore the problems anymore. Acknowledge that climate change is something we all will face. In doing so, we can fight the problems by finding answers.

We got a free local viewing and his complete TLC for hours. He really puts on a show from music to forum and captivates. It was more like a religious revival gathering for environmentalists! I am so in love with JOSH FOX.

Perhaps the most engaging documentary on Climate Change ever made. Exquisite story telling, and a phenomenal cast of folks you have and haven't heard of it.

A film with moments as exuberant as in How To Let Go is so much finer than all the ones that make you want to reach for the nearest serrated knife and nearest soft wrist.
