ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on a single eco-doc, Home. It provides the broadest sweep of the ecological issues at stake. The chapter focuses on eco-docs that investigate individual instances of the Anthropocene's relentless pursuit of non-renewable energy sources. It describes the eco-docs that explore humankind's creative responses to the question of renewable energies and, with it, the concept of a bio-generative economy. The chapter provides a mapping on Raworth's Doughnut model so people can easily visualise what this means in terms of planetary degradation. The eco-doc that most extensively documents the magnitude of this planet-asset stripping and despoliation is Home. Home is constructed like an opera. Wagnerian in its dimensions, the magnitude of the planetary destruction appears matched, in production-value terms, by the film's own excesses. Nuclear energy has produced bombs of mass extinction. The Nuclear industry, in creating power plants across the world, has generated security problems of its own.
