Eating Our Way to Extinction

Fun facts from this documentary:

• Nestlé said in a 2009 report that the world will run out of fresh water by 2050.

• An estimated 18 million acres of forest are lost each year.

• By 2030 only 10% of all forests will remain.

• Since 1970 we have wiped out over 60% of animal populations on the planet.

• Over 26,000 species are currently being threatened with extinction.

• By 2045 the species loss will be so great the Earth will suffer ecological collapse.

• Over 75% of antibiotics produced around the world are being given to livestock.

• 30% of all fresh water use in the world is used for producing animal products.

A well-made, informative, important and eye-opening documentary that covers it all: burning rainforests, animal agriculture, microplastics in our ocean, extreme weather events, food shortages, and how we are currently in the sixth mass extinction event. Makes some very strong arguments that we should all be working towards plant based diets as soon as possible.

They don't TELL YOU to stop eating meat, they just give you some (beautifully shot) facts and yet here I am changing my diet...

Once you know, you know! I highly recommend...

Just watched this documentary, I found it wonderfully presented. Resonates with the truth scientist tell, but it's same truth that people have been telling to humans from past few decades. It's more about telling the truth what humans are doing to this planet, but I can understand it must be hard to accept for many people because it tries to wake humans up that they are doing something wrong to themselves and to the future of our planet. The majority of humans want to live in a fantasy world, and to hear beautiful words and praises for themselves even when they are doing the opposite. 6.6/10 is not a good enough rating for this amazing work, if the majority of people have eyes to see their wrongdoings and hear true words the world would be different, and we might not need to watch this documentary. This is must watch for one who is brave enough to accept his/her mistakes to correct them, not for fantasy lovers.

I've been a lover of meat and dairy my whole life. It's just the way I've been brought up, like most of us. Having seen this thought provoking and compelling film, I'm now fully committed to my up most best to remove meat and dairy from my diet. We need to given the urgency science in the film is telling us.

Well done to the film makers. I'm pretty stubborn with these things and not easily convinced, but this film has nailed it with the fact and the way they've been delivered!

This is well-researched, clearly articulated, and quite frankly terrifying stuff. EATING OUR WAY TO EXTINCTION makes you want to slap people in the face with your knowledge.
