ENDGAME 2050 | Full Documentary
Endgame 2050 presents a stark vision of our planet’s future, emphasizing the urgent need for environmental action to avert ecological catastrophe.
What will the future be like in the year 2050? A mere three decades away, most of us hope to be around still. So, what kind of future are we riding into? ENDGAME 2050 gives us a glimpse into that future, and it does not look good. Humanity has backed itself into an ecological endgame as we approach mid-century. Featuring musician Moby along with leading scientists, ENDGAME 2050 lays out the reality that, unless we act urgently now, we are hastening our destruction.
Dr. Sofia Pineda Ochoa statement:
I was born and raised in Guadalajara, Mexico. I attended medical school there and, as a student, my dream was to help people as a doctor. I devoted a full decade of my life to medical training in pursuit of this goal. Over time, however, my perspective changed on what I believe is most urgent.
I have come to understand that humans - myself included - are destroying the planet on which we live. Humanity is not only making the planet uninhabitable for human civilization, but also for countless other species with whom we share this world. This is a crime of unparalleled magnitude, and I feel a deep sense of concern, in particular, for all the different animals that are being decimated by human activities.
I made ENDGAME 2050 because I want people to wake up to the gravity of the situation before it’s too late.
Many environmental films sugarcoat our reality and the extent of changes needed. They sometimes don’t want to make people too uncomfortable. But I think that does a grave disservice to the audience and the planet. I wanted this film to lay out the dire situation in which we now find ourselves, and the responsibility for these global problems that we all bear. I think we owe it to the planet, other species, and ourselves not to bury our heads in the sand.
