    very informative. makes one think that we really will delete ourselves from the face of the earth if we're not careful. our life-styles need to change drastically!

    An engrossing presentation by Jared Diamond and others looks back from the future at the fall of our civilization, and why now is our turning point in history and why it is so pressing and so unique. Also included on this disc is Treasure Hunters, a fascinating short about what happened to the last Incan king when Spain colonized them. If you liked Apocalypto, you'll like this.
