Werner Boote, director of Plastic Planet, explores the theme of population increase: The world’s current total of seven billion residents might double in 61 years. The production of food and consumer goods would have to increase considerably to satisfy the new demand, and the amount of refuse and pollution would grow as well.

Written and directed by Werner Boote. Produced by Markus Glaser, Wolfgang Widerhofer, Nikolaus Geyrhalter and Michael Kitzberger.
