I 'm sure everyone remembers the ground breaking photo exhibiton "Earth from Above" which was showcased in every major city in the world a few years back.

Breathtaking large scale images shot by Yann Arthus Bertrand from a bird's eye perspective showed you our planet in an unforgettable way - but also taught you a lot about how humans are affecting every form of life - mostly in a busting-it-all-up sort of way.

Now Bertrand followed up this project with a jawdropping movie called Home. Filmed in the same style -  accompanied by a beautiful angelic soundtrack and narrated by a captivating voice it tells the story of our beloved Earth and how mankind is about to destroy it. This of course is not new to anyone who hasn't just woken up from a 20 year coma.

But showing our planet in such a fascinating way breaks your heart thinking that we might just kick it all in the bin so soon. 

The whole movie is freely available in HD on YouTube. It really brings you home!

Here a few stills i grabbed for you:
