We are just under eight billion. Fifty years ago there were only half as many people. But the fact that we are too many is not only due to our numbers, but above all to the resource consumption of each individual. Before one of us in Europe, for example, wakes up, we have already consumed more commercial energy than a farming family of 28 in a country like Ethiopia or Nigeria. There are ways out of the cycle of overpopulation combined with poverty, through education for example. But those who break out of the cycle of poverty enter the cycle of consumption. Are there ways out of the cycle of consumption? That is what the film wants to find out. Is there a way out of the trilemma: "population growth, increasing energy consumption and ruin of ecosystems"?
Debate: How to break the trilemma: "population growth, increasing energy consumption and ruin of ecosystems"?
