A few salty words are heard ("s-t," "hell," and one "f-k"), and one scene shows people celebrating a victory with a drink/toast. Footage of real violence includes scenes of police and military troops attempting to disperse protestors or prevent activists from entering fenced-off areas in one instance, police shoot randomly, and two men are killed. Other than a few dissenting interviews, the point of view is consistently in favor of taking care of Mother Earth. The focus is on forcefully confirming that the Earth is indeed in danger and then offering concrete ways to make corrections, beginning at the local level. Parents need to know that This Changes Everything is a climate change documentary that promotes positivity and taking immediate action as viable solutions to the crisis on our planet.
