New Michael Moore documentary. -
2020-04-24 at 3:06 PM UTCMichael Moore presents Planet of the Humans, a documentary that dares to say what no one else will this Earth Day — that we are losing the battle to stop climate change on planet earth because we are following leaders who have taken us down the wrong road — selling out the green movement to wealthy interests and corporate America. This film is the wake-up call to the reality we are afraid to face: that in the midst of a human-caused extinction event, the environmental movement’s answer is to push for techno-fixes and band-aids. It’s too little, too late.
Removed from the debate is the only thing that MIGHT save us: getting a grip on our out-of-control human presence and consumption. Why is this not THE issue? Because that would be bad for profits, bad for business. Have we environmentalists fallen for illusions, “green” illusions, that are anything but green, because we’re scared that this is the end—and we’ve pinned all our hopes on biomass, wind turbines, and electric cars?
No amount of batteries are going to save us, warns director Jeff Gibbs (lifelong environmentalist and co-producer of “Fahrenheit 9/11” and “Bowling for Columbine”). This urgent, must-see movie, a full-frontal assault on our sacred cows, is guaranteed to generate anger, debate, and, hopefully, a willingness to see our survival in a new way—before it’s too late. -

michael moores documentaries are mostly retarded, over dramatized and under factualized, shallow, and was written to appeal to those with double digit IQs in mind.
if his documemtaries appeal to you, then you are his target audience. -

2020-04-24 at 4:35 PM UTCI'm pretty sure the conclusion is that climate change is Donald Trump's fault.

2020-04-24 at 5:03 PM UTCI haven't finished it yet, but he is basically talking about how Green Energy is a scam, saying none of it will work out, and that the real problem is that there are just too many people on our planet.
And holy shit you people are quick to jump to conclusions. -

Most "green energy" used right now isn't solar or wind, it's the burning of "biomass" which is mostly just trees, labelled as "green" because technically it is renewable (even though if we burned every tree in america all power produced would be consumed in a year, and trees take 20 years to grow back) and these plants still burn natural gas, still use fossil fuels. -
2020-04-24 at 6:13 PM UTCUnless I missed it Trump was not mentioned in this documentary. Lots of blame laid on the Koch brothers, capitalism, and that there are too many humans on the planet, our finite resources cannot sustain infinite growth.

the whole thing was cooked up to shift the power and control from the old capital, big oils and banks, to new capitals, the green companies.
same thing happened when they shifted the old power from the rails towards car manufacturers and big oils at the turn of the last century.
most people who support these things are just dumb betas who just want to belong, to be a cog of some big and powerful machine. -

just as i thought, utter retardation.
blaming over population is retarded. the real problem as always is distribution.
just like income inequalities are caused by poor income distribution, resources inequality are due to poor resources distribution.
all the foods and drinks that the first world throw out due to a variety of reasons can feed all the third world a few times over.
first world consumers are the problem.
the audiences are the problem. -

nobody really knows the real percentage of biomasses in those garbagges.
I don't know that burning garbage is better than burning trees. -
