How can we as individuals combat climate change? The filmmaker John Webster and his family are looking for an answer, leading a low-carbon lifestyle. Over the course of one year, they reduce their ecological ‘footprint’: they do not use a car, electricity or plastic, eat only local food and radically change their diet. Humorous and convincing, this film depicts the daily obstacles and adversities, as well as the newfound freedoms, which they encounter.
