Carolyn Baker, www.carolynbaker.org "Perhaps the most important media message of our time." Jan Lundberg at CultureChange.org "This is the most demanding wake-up call to all and sundry I have so far seen - a very hard kick in the groin, a straight punch to the face - no mean feat for any film, and essential viewing while there may still be a little time." - A Review by Derek J. Wilson @ Oilcrash.com "Hundreds of my readers have told me that my novel Ishmael should be read in every high school classroom in the world. Naturally I'd be delighted to see this happen, but I really think it would be more to the point to have What a Way to Go: Life at the End of Empire seen in every high school classroom in the world! The two hours of this documentary are two hours that bring hope for the future of humanity by awakening and informing in the most profound yet lucid way imaginable."
