I've mentioned it a few times while at work and I was unable to link to it, so here it is:

It's about 90 minutes long, so set some time aside to watch the whole thing.

Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Psssssst...
What's it about?
I am lazy and do not feel like using teh internets to answer my own question. In fact, in the time it took me to write this post I likely could have looked it up on my own. But writting this post seemed like much less work when I clicked the "Reply" button and now I'm committed...

Re: Psssssst...
In short, it goes in detail to describe the symbiotic nature of us and earth. It shows how what you do effects someone in China. One example is how you get that slab of steak and ALL of the processes it goes through to get from the cow factory in Africa to your dinner table. Another is explaining how important the rain forest is as an oxygen producer and the wetlands are as a sort of air scrubber. It also explains how we have evolved as a species agriculturally.
