One Man, One Cow, One Planet ( aka How to Save the World )

AKA "How to Save the World". This 'eco-mentary' exposes globalization and its mantra of infinite growth in an infinite world for what it really is: an environmental and human disaster. But across India marginal farmers are fighting back. By reviving biodynamics, an arcane form of agriculture, they are saving their poisoned lands and rejecting the bio-colonialism of multi-national corporations. Elderly New Zealander, Peter Proctor, is at the forefront of this burgeoning bio-dynamic agricultural movement - they're calling him the new Gandhi.
