The Angry Red Planet
Fans of the “so-bad-it’s good” style of film making will have a real hoot with this film. Contains virtually all of the prerequisites for cheeseball scifi, ie. really bad effects, cornball dialogue, comic relief, and sexual stereotypes and innuendos. What the film lacks in budget and execution it more than makes up for in pure spirit and fun. Grab the popcorn!

Garbage!
The Revolution Starts at Home, The MacDonalds, a middle-class Toronto family, saved their garbage for three months to really see how much waste they generate. They bagged and stored all their waste and on Day 90, a truck pulled out of their driveway with 83 bags of recyclable and non-recyclable waste. They also produced about 320 pounds of organic waste.
