Reviews for 11th Hour

11th and a half-hour
Since this film, and the urgent message it contains, was released, there has been quite frankly little concrete action taken on climate change. It seems the point is still not getting across to those who make the big decisions, particularly in Canada. At the 2010 summit in Copenhagen Canada's delegates successfully blocked any meaningful resolutions on greenhouse gas reductions, earning us the title of Colossal Fossil from Avaaz.org. I hang my head in shame.

So my point is, despite being almost 6 years old, this film does need to be seen, still. Check it out. It contains some great - albeit occasionally dated - information, and some pretty powerful stuff from some world leaders who really "get the message" about climate change.

And time is running out.
