Day Zero (2021)

Review by thewhale-49134

Day Zero

8/10

Water Problems well defined, Need other films for possible solutions.

I am very glad that I watched David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet (2020) & KISS THE GROUND (2020) before seeing this documentary. They are more general and provided a Problem-Solution approach.

This documentary has done a good job of bringing together locals, advocates and experts from some of the affected areas of the world. The Brazilian Rain Forest scientist is really dedicated and inclusive of all populations. He readily offers up that the native people understood the dynamics of the forest correctly, long before modern science.

NASA satellites are used as a key element to tie together some regions of the world and the whole planet. Coverage is impressive and visually stunning. Overview to specific to connectedness to overview to specific to...

For instance: The Cape Town water shortage footage, interviews, and expert perspectives provided valuable insights to help identify the causes of the problem - Past, Present and Future. Dry reservoir compared to 3 yrs prior was especially interesting to see, up close.

Yet it appears that so many problems exist, without the populations understanding why these issues are happening, that the documentary budgeted it's time to explain many of the problems we face, and so offers few solutions. The American farmer was able to say only one sentence about Regenerative Farming techniques.
