DVD Giveaway: ‘Home’
What better way than to celebrate World Environment Day then to score a free copy of Yann Arthus Bertrand’s ‘Home’ which is also narrated by Glenn Close. This hits shelves all over the entire world on World Environment Day, June 5th.

Here is a synopsis of the documentary:
It’s too late… to be a pessimist when the inspirational, informative and breathtaking documentary, Home soars onto Blu-ray and DVD June 5, World Environmental Day. Directed by internationally renowned French photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand, produced by world famous director Luc Besson and narrated by five-time Academy Award ® nominee Glenn Close (Dangerous Liaisons), Home aims to change the way people see the planet and their impact on it. Shot in high definition in 54 countries and 120 locations over 217 days, the unique and first-time ever all-aerial filming style highlights the Earth’s wonders as well as its wounds and provides a necessary perspective to approach the changing environment.

I am going to continue to combine trips (so that I am not making unnecessary trips in my car for just one thing), turn off lights that aren’t being used, and continue to help promote Earth Day at the community college where I work with programming to let our students know about what they can do to help their planet.
It’s a wonderful thing to let humankind aware of what is happening far beyond their vicinity, let them see the whole world within few minuties and lastly let them decide to change every conduct that can jeopardize existance of living organism on the surface of the earth.
I will love to bring more people to watch this movie on 5th June and in other coming days so as they can recognize their role in environmental protection of Planet Earth.
I used to live in the country and had to drive everywhere but now I live in town so I bike all the time. Whereas I used to fill up with gas once a week, I now fill about once a month. Also my city has a beautiful walkway down by the river that was flooded this past spring bringing in a whole ton of garbage. Once or twice a week I go walk down there to collect trash and bag it up. I’ve also started doing that out at my parents’ country home. Doing stuff like that and recruiting my friends to help pick up garbage in the parks around our town so more people can enjoy the outdoors is what I’m doing.
I've switched to canvas bags for shopping and use reusable coffee and water bottles instead of buying disposible cups and bottles.
