no-impact-man
Colin Beavan decides to completely eliminate his personal impact on the environment for the next year.

It means eating vegetarian, buying only local food, and turning off the refrigerator. It also means no elevators, no television, no cars, busses, or airplanes, no toxic cleaning products, no electricity, no material consumption, and no garbage.

No problem – at least for Colin – but he and his family live in Manhattan. So when his espresso-guzzling, retail-worshipping wife Michelle and their two-year-old daughter are dragged into the fray, the No Impact Project has an unforeseen impact of its own.

Laura Gabbert and Justin Schein's film provides an intriguing inside look into the experiment that became a national fascination and media sensation, while examining the familial strains and strengthened bonds that result from Colin and Michelle’s struggle with their radical lifestyle change.

Several times Colin fretted that he wasn't going to make much of a difference, that people would shrug off his experiment, and that one person is too small to make a difference. Yet one of the strengths of his project is that people can see that they don't have to try to be perfect. We all really can make changes that add up, and we can find the solutions that work for us. We can keep the changes that work and discard the ones that don't.
