The Human Race Series
53 minutes (In two parts for schools: Part1-19 min., Part 2-
32 min.)
A film by Josh Freed
Mexico City, the most polluted and fastest-growing city on the
planet, is a sobering foretaste of what may await us all. But
as those in the North continue to consume at all-time highs,
what right do they have to limit poorer nations from
developing? And while the global village is largely
responsible for encouraging the ideology of consumerism, mass
communications are also spreading democracy. Looking at the
effects of industrialization on Mexico, and how its
development impacts the rest of the world, this video finds
reasons for optimism. But it's a tough equation: for the
Third World to have more, the First World will have to get
used to having a little less.
"There is light at the end of the tunnel, and it may not be an
oncoming train." Gwynne Dyer
