Eating Our Way to Extinction

Loads and loads of well verified facts along with a beautifully shot film. Not preachy like other films. Definitely worth watching... in fact an important film and a must see.

This is well worth watching. I just saw it in the cinema with my wife. This really opened my eyes to a lot of things I had heard about but had no idea just how much what I eat is effecting the world. The cinematography was amazing and there are a lot of very moving scenes weaved through the story.

It was great to see my childhood hero's Richard Branson and Tony Robbins sharing their take on the issue and Winslet's narration perfectly fit the story. We were on the edge of our seats most of the way though as every scene keeps you engaged right from the very start to the very finish.

The film got an ovation at the end, and quite rightly deserved. Will be recommending to friends and colleagues.

This documentary starts out strong with a bold premise, supported by searing images, flashy data, great editing work, and the fascinating accent of A-lister Kate Winslet. I learn a few things, like how algae pills are a much more direct, cleaner source of Omega 3s than fish. However, at the end, it becomes preachy, devolving into another mediocre show callously imposing a plant-based diet. "Eating Our Way to Extinction" neglects exploring the reason why humans continue to have an appetite for meat flavor. The fact that it showcases consumers being amazed at how the "fake meat" tastes exactly like real meat only promotes the reality that people will continue to crave that meaty taste. Until you explore why, you cannot effectively and sincerely expect people to abruptly stop eating meat.

I've been a lover of meat and dairy my whole life. It's just the way I've been brought up, like most of us. Having seen this thought provoking and compelling film, I'm now fully committed to my up most best to remove meat and dairy from my diet. We need to given the urgency science in the film is telling us.

Well done to the film makers. I'm pretty stubborn with these things and not easily convinced, but this film has nailed it with the fact and the way they've been delivered!

They don't TELL YOU to stop eating meat, they just give you some (beautifully shot) facts and yet here I am changing my diet...

Once you know, you know! I highly recommend...
