In BBC documentary, "A Farm for the Future," Rebbecca Hosking does a masterful job in playing the role as a fellow peer, a concerned individual who articulately guides the audience through understanding a global crisis, and providing a solid solution. She manages this while maintaining a spirit that is subtly convincing, and wins the respect of the general audience by the role that she plays. She pays a conscious attention to focusing the majority of her points on pragmatism rather than ideals or ethics. When addressing the central problem instead of focusing on the damage to the ecosystem and endangered species, she concentrates on resource availability and bringing food to the table. When addressing the solution, instead of fixating on the naturalistic harmony of permaculture, she focuses on the balance between human labor and food yield. This truly marks the more inclusive character of the documentary, which is why it undeniably appeals so well to a worldwide audience, and shows the rhetorical prowess in the packaging of this important message.
