WILD IDEA, A
By Veronica Moscoso
A Wild Idea explores Ecuador's
unprecedented proposal for fighting global
warming and preserving a large area of
pristine rainforest from oil development –
called the Yasuni-ITT Initiative.
In exchange for compensation from the
world community, Ecuador pledges to
leave untouched a large oil reserve, the
ITT block with over 850 million barrels of
oil. If the proposal succeeds, it will protect
one of the most bio-diverse places on
Earth, respect the rights of two of the last
nomadic indigenous cultures who live
there, and avoid the emission of over 400
million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Exploiting the ITT oil reserve seemed a
logical step that Ecuador had to take, as a
relatively poor country that depends upon
oil for a large percentage of its revenue.
But political changes have transformed the
way the country views oil development.
The film takes the viewer to the Yasuni
National Park in the Ecuadorian Amazon,
capturing the rainforest's stunning
biodiversity and profiling the tribes that live
there. Through rich archival footage and
commentary from government officials,
environmentalists and others, A Wild Idea
shows how the seemingly utopian ideal of
keeping valuable oil underground turned
into an official proposal. The political twists
and turns that made the proposal possible
could also threaten the success of this
revolutionary idea.
A Wild Idea is a thought-provoking film that
explores the complexity of contemporary
oil development within a fragile ecosystem,
and how creative, new approaches might
be of significant local and global benefit.
Review
"A thought-provoking film…shows
how the seemingly utopian ideal of
keeping valuable oil underground
turned into an official proposal – and
the audience sees what's at stake if
the proposal is not accepted." - Reel

resource, created in collaboration with a
team of expert clinicians and educators,
provides a comprehensive and accurate
3D anatomy atlas and surgical reference.
Ideal for learning, reviewing and teaching
anatomy and procedures the DVD-ROM
features highly detailed, accurate and
