"For the first time since life appeared on earth, one species- us- is single-handedly altering the physical, chemical and biological nature of earth. We have become a force of nature" - David Suzuki Award-winning director Sturla Gunnarsson presents a biography of ideas featuring iconic Canadian scientist, educator, broadcaster and activist David Suzuki.  At 73 years of age Suzuki delivered what he describes as "a last lecture - a distillation of my life and thoughts, my legacy, what I want to say before I die." In Force of Nature: The David Suzuki Movie Gunnarsson interweaves this lecture with scenes from Suzuki's life and lifetime - the major social, scientific, cultural and political events of the past 70 years. Suzuki articulates a core, urgent message: We have exhausted the limits of the biosphere and it is imperative that we rethink our relationship with the natural world. He looks unflinchingly at the strains on the interconnected web of life and offers up a blueprint for sustainability and survival.  This title is available to the educational market only (schools, colleges, etc).
