Environment ( a review)

Very good attempt,

Excellent quality of production

Negatives:
Talking heads, Not very action oriented. The people should have had their names and titles below them as they spoke
B roll sometimes does not match the topic covered.... it is a bit artistic. (though that does not distract from the message)
Academically some of the arguements were shallow. (It is harder than these guys make it out to be.)
Not diverse enough, no one from China, India nor of different races.
No maps of where we are refering to.

But with all these negatives this makes a good addition to a lecture or series of lectures.
