Hi Mo
You have had so many recommendations, I know,  but I can't resist  
pointing out these films from Filmakers Library which might have a  
different angle on the theme.


The Tipping Point: Global Warming at the Arctic Circle (new release)

The Arctic sea ice, a plate of ice roughly the size of Europe, is  
disappearing. In addition to the environmental concerns, the  
political and economic implications are dramatic. (Click on titles  
for full description.)


Mad Cow, Sacred Cow (new release)

With a sense of humor and curiosity, the filmmaker explores the  
shocking connections between the mad cow crisis, the farm crisis, and  
the global food crisis. Globalization emerges as a recurring theme,  
connecting the food we eat to the environmental, cultural, economic  
and health crises we are currently facing. .51 min.


Men in Danger: Environmental Effects on Fertility (new release)

Sperm production in humans has suffered a spectacular drop; by 50% in  
50 years. In addition, testicular cancers and congenital malformation  
of male reproductive organs are on the rise. This disturbing  
documentary looks at findings that point to pollutants as the cause  
of endocrinal changes in the male reproductive system.52 min.


 Storms over China

Global warming, combined with Chinese agricultural practices, few  
rainstorms, and violent winds have produced increasingly intense  
sandstorms in northwest China, leading to desertification.


Trash Trade: Selling Garbage to China

Japanese waste is turning into gold in the hands of Chinese dealers  
who extract valuable metal and plastic from mountains of scrap. But  
not all Japanese trash is welcome.49 min


Venetian Dilemma

With stunning imagery, this film portrays the fragile urban ecology  
of Venice besieged by 14 million tourists who far outnumber the local  
residents. By tracking four Venetians who are trying to make a life  
in this unique historic place, the themes of urban gentrification and  
tourist impact are raised -- a problem not only for Venice but for  
many other urban areas. 56 min.


Slow Food Revolution

Traditional foods are at risk of disappearing forever, as a speed- 
obsessed world turns increasingly to fast foods. To counter this  
trend, there is an international movement known as Slow Food. 52 min.


Regards,

Sue

2010-03-29 Thread Jackson, Sandra F.
Thanks to everyone for providing such a great list.  This will be really 
helpful when I protest the next time someone wants to program a showing WALL-E 
for sustainability issues.  Playing it once was fine, but it's now been played 
three years in a row with a different group sponsoring it each year.  Each time 
I say it's been done, the group insists it is THE movie they want to play. I'm 
going to throw a fit if anyone asks me to play WALL-E again.   Now that I have 
a very long list of alternatives to offer, maybe I'll be able to get them to 
choose something else.

Hi, Mo
 
Sorry to miss this on Friday because we were at the excellent Higher
Education Digital Video Summit in NYC, for which many thanks to the
'Gang of Seven' organizers, and especially Jane Hutchison.
 
As you can imagine, Bullfrog has many titles in the area of
sustainability but we have put together a brochure specifically for
higher education that is geared both to institutional efforts to make
their own campuses more sustainable and to instruction on the subject.
 
Here's the link:
www.bullfrogfilms.com/brochures/BullfrogSustainabilityBrochure.pdf
 
As you will see the brochure divided up into different areas such as
Global Warming, Food and Hunger, Green Building, Water, Community
Development etc.
 
Call me if you want specific recommendations in different areas.
 
Best,
John

Fresh

Fridays on the Farm

Good Food

The Real Dirt on Farmer John 

Food, Inc.

Farming the Oceans

Eating Alaska

 

Most have to do with sustainability in agriculture or aquaculture.

 

I have viewed them all and they are all great. I particularly enjoyed
Fresh and Good Food.

Hopefully someone in attendance will post notes from today's pow-wow in NYC.

Radically Simple  (Bullfrog Films, 2005)

   In Radically simple, we join engineer and author Jim Merkel as he 
presents his views on sustainable living in public presentations

discussion on global economics and resource consumption, show 
Merkel leading by example.  He demonstrates that a radically simple

extremely satisfying.

To:  Academic media librarians/paraprofessionals; distributors.

I would like to enhance our media collection with DVDs about environmental 
/green sustainability at the university level.

Would you mind sharing  five-to-ten titles that are currently in your 
collection, or catalog?

Feel free to respond to me directly, or post to the listserv.

Thanks in advance. :)

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues 
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, 
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and 
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.
