From the film's website:

"Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, this captivating 2007 documentary explores the perilous state of our planet, and the means by which we can change our course. Contributing to this crucial film are noted politicians, scientists and other ambassadors for the importance of a universal ecological consciousness.

" 'We, as citizens, leaders, consumers, and voters, have the opportunity to help integrate ecology into governmental policy and every day living standards,' concludes Leonardo DiCaprio. 'During this critical period of human history, healing the damage of industrial civilization is the task of our generation. Our response depends on the conscious evolution of our species and this response could very well save this unique blue planet for future generations.' "
