Customer Reviews of National Geographic's Strange Days on Planet Earth

Good content, but needs a more attractive style
I am a HUGE fan of Edward Norton and the environment (not necessarily in the same order as stated). I worry a lot about our mother Earth and the days to come. I think after establishing the strategic balance of horror (nuclear weapons) humans are now able to look around and see the new challenge. <

>Today we don't live the struggle for peace among the world's superpowers. However, we live the struggle to clean up our environment. Taking care of the environment hasn't been a priority in our conscious since we came to being. Now, we started noticing the effects of our reckless past. Everything is changing faster around us and we have to act fast or the results might be grim. <

>It's really sad to see that caring the environment has become a political issue in our country. Some people use the environment for their own political sake and not as an urgent societal need. If it came to me, I would make protecting the environment a national Amendment that unites us all. After all, what good can come from freedom if there's no place for us to enjoy it? <

>Kudos to Norton and to National Geographic for their good work. I wish next time they present more material in a slightly more attractive style. But after all, this was a great presentation. <
>Thank you!

Strange days? Really?
These four episodes make it quite apparent what's happening on Planet Earth. Human beings--we-- are becoming the instruments of our own self-destruction. The sensible thing to do would be to simply put a halt to our brainless ways, but more people are concerned with self-advancement or making a profit than leaving behind an inhabitable world for our posterity. There's no excuse for polluted drinking water. Overfishing is irresponsible and unacceptable. Killing off the one predator that can keep an entire ecosystem from collapsing has embarassing consequences. Species invade and wreak havoc in places where they don't belong because the people pushing world transportation and globalization have little concern for the delicate equillibriums of life on Earth. Toxic chemicals have no place on my dinner plate. And global warming is not a hoax; it is real, it is dangerous, and it is our fault. Gone are the days when we can pursue biology and environmental science for fun or because we think animals are cute; now we must pursue it and get our heads into our survival, or our progeny will have every reason to desecrate our remains or machine gun us all for leaving behind nothing but a smoggy wasteland for them. I hate it when my fellow AP Environmental Science classmates walk into the classroom with anything but grave, urgent expressions on their faces. Instead of acting like we have a grand task before us, they goof off and think it strange when I do not goof off with them. I highly recommend this two-DVD set to everyone because everyone's planet is everyone's business and everyone's responsibility.

Extremly well done
For anyone who tends to fall asleep during the normal documentary will be pleased with Strange Days. The information contained in these videos are key in changing the way things are. I hope more people will watch this.
