Planetary Agenda: Real Causes and Cures of the Ecological Crisis

Short subjects, drawn from footage shot at the June, 1992 People's Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, feature eco-heros such as Al Gore, Helen Caldicott, Jerry Brown, David Brower, and Wangari Maathai. The tape relays the message of the Dalai Lama on care for the environment, along with strategies for restoring him to Tibet. Throughout flow generous samplings from the world music and dance performances at the event, including those by John Denver, Olivia Newton-John, and Paul Winter.
