No Impact Man

I really loved it! It was hilarious and inspirational!

This family lived for one year without impact. They gave up non-local foods, electricity, carbon-emitting transportation (subways, planes, elevators), etc.

I loved seeing this story against an NYC backdrop - they did such a good job of pointing out the contrast of No Impact Man's project against the vapid consumerism of the big city, without demonizing it.

I also loved how the film was environmentally-centered without preaching or spewing the same statistics you see regularly in these types of films. The movie never talked-down to the audience which I also loved.

They didn't treat this guy like a hero or like he was fault-less. I enjoyed that the film explored the paradox of his wife's job ay Business Week. And I liked that it addressed the philosophy of it all too.

Good stuff! Recommended!!!
