COUNTDOWN - responding to a
global crisis
How to Boil a Frog is a satirical documentary about the consequences of overshoot: too many people using up too little planet. An everyman dad (Jon Cooksey) gives a satirical overview of our global situation, and five surprising ways we can save civilization while making our own lives better.
Your film is cleverly done and enjoyable to watch!
Richard Heinberg, author, "Powerdown", "Peak Everything", "The Party's Over"
It is an astonishing amount of work and a well-crafted exercise in exposition. I hope you will find a large market for it.
Dennis Meadows, co-author, "Limits to Growth"
