Forks Over Knives Directed by Lee Fulkerson

This documentary examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the so-called “diseases of affluence” that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods. The documentary’s startling conclusion: degenerative diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes and even several forms of cancer, could be prevented—and in many cases reversed—by adopting a whole foods, plant-based diet.

Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret Directed by Kip Anderson

Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret is a groundbreaking feature-length environmental documentary following filmmaker Kip Andersen as he uncovers the most destructive industry facing the planet today – and investigates why the world’s leading environmental organizations are too afraid to talk about it. Animal agriculture is the leading cause of deforestation, water consumption and pollution, is responsible for more greenhouse gases than the transportation industry, and is a primary driver of rainforest destruction, species extinction, habitat loss, topsoil erosion, ocean “dead zones,” and virtually every other environmental ill. Yet it goes on, almost entirely unchallenged.
