Thermo-industrial capitalism is going away shortly, whether we like it or not, and human population is likely to shrink for material reasons... But it is highly unlikely that all humans would disappear, even in worst case scenarios. We are causing a mass extinction, but there will be survivors. If there are a few resilient small animals to eat after the disaster, there will be human hunter gatherers to hunt them..
The point being, the planet doesn't care ; people don't care about the planet either, they just care about preserving an environment suitable to them . All environmentalism is about humans, and what we want the environment to be like .
Or to give it its full context "So we are talking of the old oil economy trying to maintain itself, now with another raw material, the green planet. The only reason corn and soya has been planted for biofuel in this country is that subsidies make it profitable. I think the big crisis of our times is our minds have been manipulated to give power to illusions. We've shifted to measuring growth, not in terms of how life is enriched, but in terms of how life is destroyed."
And those are the illusions that most billionair megalomaniacs need them to suth their own traumas and that's also what consumes the most energy. The most people in need are the ones that are poor in their hearts and they will destroy the whole world just so we could understand their misery. It is the psychological problem at global scales.

Cheaper than coal In 2018, India’s “levelized” cost of solar-power generation-an analysis removing the impact of direct subsidies and figuring in the costs of construction and financing for a new plant-fell to 14% below that of coal, the first time anywhere in the world that generating solar was cheaper than coal on that basis, according to international energy consulting firm Wood Mackenzie. India’s national energy plan doesn’t anticipate construction of new coal power plants for at least several years. Even state-controlled Coal India, one of the world’s largest coal-producing companies, in November said it planned a pilot solar project as it navigated a future with less coal. Across Asia, a region expected to account for two-thirds of the world’s new power demand during the next two decades, price declines will make wind and solar combined 17% cheaper than coal by 2030 on a levelized basis, says Wood Mackenzie. In India, solar generation will be almost 50% cheaper, it projects. www.wsj.com/articles/solar-power-is-beginning-to-eclipse-fossil-fuels-11581964338

Mark Hemsworth it isn't about which form of energy is cheaper, the fact is solar is not green due to the sheer amount of mining and coal burning needed to create the infrastructure for it. Your article details a plant that can power the equivalent of a small US town. If we look early in the docu and see the solar array that purportedly could only run about ten US homes, the scale of the one in India would have to be massive. Extrapolate that to running a country or the world? Impossible. Population and energy usage reduction are the most realistic solutions i think.

I am not a physicist, however from my education in the automotive business I learned this: Every time energy is exerted there has to be a heat exchange. Examples: Electric motors get warm when creating a rotary motion. Batteries get warm when charging or discharging powering lights and electric motors. Light bulbs get warm creating light. Ovens get hot to cook food. Two objects moving against each other (Rotating or sliding) create heat requiring an organic petroleum product to lubricate and keep cool. All forms of transportation (forward motion) require some form of a heat exchange to achieve this including internal combustion engines, electric motors, or hydrogen (which must be created retrieving hydrogen from water with a heat exchange process.) Burning of some type of fuel is required to heat a home whether it is a local source like coal, natural gas or electricity remotely created by burning other fuels like coal or natural gas at a remote location. Manufacturing items like melting iron ore with coke or natural gas to create steel. converting organic petroleum into molded plastic products. So where am I going with this statement? It is simple. For humans to survive on earth there has to be a consumption of some products like organic petroleum, vegetation (ash from burned vegetation makes excellent fertilizer that replenishes forests after a fire), or anything else that can be burned to produce any form of energy. The question is as this documentary demonstrates, when will sourced items that must be consumed (Burned) run out? This ia an excellent video. I was expecting praises and putting green energy on an alter to be prayed to. In conclusion something has to be consumed (burned) for humans to survive. It all started when humans burned things to keep warm and to cook food as they found uncooked animals were not good.

You ain't kidding..I've watched my grown daughter (despite bringing up opposite) go to sweet counter and buy 2 bars choc for £1.50 and 2 cans coke for £1.30 and say why don't u buy 4 bar multipack choc for £1 and bottle coke that's on offer for £1 (total -2£ saving 80p but gaining 2 bar choc and 1.5ltr coke free)
@@evilovesperry it's both you fool. Why do you think they need all that energy? To power their concerts, to make their garbage, etc. Yes, this new generation is the most wasteful by far. Don't go acting as if they aren't because they throw away perfectly good stuff, buy more clothes then they need, and buy garbage for the sake of it.
This is such a biased outlook on the big picture. We are all part of the problem! Blaming a set of individuals who have lived a less amount of time on the earth than previous generations is borderline ignorant. Regardless of the amount of consumption at the present moment, previous generations will always have consumed more of the earths resources, new generations just add to the problem. Yes it’s a battle for renewable resources and cutting down on our global footprint, but the main issue is our growth as a global population and not having enough resources to fill that need. If you think people born after 1996 who are just now 25 and settling into adulthood are the main contributors to our global crisis, and not the countless generations beforehand, then i don’t know what to tell you man, it’s just shifting the blame on the new guy. That’s the type of attitude that stagnates our progress to solving this. It’s their future too man, they inherit this.
Thank you very much for posting this. I think it is a sign of strength and humility (these are not contradictory terms) to admit we have been changed for the better by new information and perspectives. I have been an environmental educator, advocate, and activist for many years, and I had my eyes opened many times in this film.
Watching those 500 year old Joshua trees get pulverized in the name of "green energy" was more than angering, it was painful, heartbreaking. (While watching this movie I was reminded of the somewhat recent moves by the Sierra Club to label John Muir - who did so much to save the redwood forests - a white supremacist. This together with its support of burning "wood chips" (forests) in the name of saving the environment shows the true colors of the Sierra Club.). My eyes were opened to a lot of things I didn't know as well, although none of it was surprising.
@@betsyj59 I've kept my messenger notifications from Sierra Club active post documentary... and each time one comes through it reminds me of their hypocrisy.
@@betsyj59 I hundred percent agree with your feelings on the killing of the ancient Joshua trees! That was just gruesome and enraging. The capitalistic mind loves to classify deserts (and swamps) as "wastelands" so they can exploited and abused in a whole variety of ways (nuke tests, military exercises, uranium mines, off-road vehicles, garbage dumps, toxic waste and radioactive waste dumps and so on...). Even the ancient forests that I, and Muir, love(d) so much were up until very recently (and some still see them this way amazingly) were considered by many to be biological deserts (see a slam on both the forests and the deserts) and cellulose cemeteries and were considered wasteful. It was considered morally right and even morally imperative to cut these forests down and replace them with spindly overstocked monoculture tree farms/plantations where the trees would never be allowed to reach anywhere near their maximum ages and therefore would never be able to provide the ecologically stability and resilience that ancients forests do. Their impacts on carbon cycling and water cycling and quality and biodiversity, much more manageable forest fires and so on... are incredibly beneficial to life as we know it.
@The Venesian Mask You’re literally believing some others guys youtube video that happens to be much poorer and biased than the one it claims to debunk. Hypocritical idiot
@@drygordspellweaver8761 haha that is just great, let us start by insulting. Ok, so first, you dont have to be bias to see some of those recordings are from ten years ago and present them as evidence. Those numbers have hugely changed if you work on the industry. If you watch some of his other vídeos, you would see the kind of criticism he makes of these technologies and how far we still are from making a difference. Not bias at all. (I guess non objective bias eyes can only see bias everywere) Second, you dont filter a content or narrative by the quality of its production, but the quality of its arguments, and information. (Thats how you have a constructive conversation) Third, its own producers sayed their objective with this was to be alarmist in order to grab peoples attention to the subject. ...thats why you never take any documentary for fact. And finally, Im not downgrading anyone's content by calling it "youtube docu" (you are the one calling me for that) it just happens to be the source. In fact, youtube nowadays has some pritty cool engineering and scientific educational content to look for, that are great at explaining complex themes. So yeah, a documentary of this nature, can be hugely missleading if people dont have a look at its content. (Same as one does with news tabloids or anything for that matter)
@@gonedeep43 Not a lie. Just hugely missleading, in fact, it does put varius deep questions on the table. Indeed it's far from being a resolved problem thats for sure, but its also far better adressed in reality that what this film wants the public to belive it is.
In a world where so many people have come to believe that something less than one percent of our atmosphere can bring about unmitigated disasters just because some “Experts” keep harping on that it’s so without explanation of the mechanism or real Scientific proof Satire over energy conversion of renewables such as trees is pretty much what we get these days ....
With that top comment getting 8000 votes and yours just 24, it looks like the Turing AI computers were out in force to give it a thumbs up blizzard "Oh, it's free, it's free!"
I live in the Netherlands. Near a place called Havelte. It was a place with a lot of trees. 100.000 of trees have been cut down. A beautifull old forest has totally disapeared. All the energy companies have been bought by a Swedish company called Fattenfall or sonething like that. They burn those beautifull old trees with coles for electricity. Brussel / Europe has ordered that it is forbidden that in ten years there is any forest left in Holland. It is against the law to have any forest left. It is the stupidest thing i have ever heard. They feed it to the Dutch people with a title of "Landscape Alteration". So that maybe one stupd tiny lizard comes back. The people at the top positions earn millions of euro's with this process. It is a process of big sums of money going from one to another so in the end it can find its way into the deepest pocket of the already very rich people. The Nostra would have been proud of such a legal system. If we would turn it around then we could say that Europe and our own government is murdering people. A tree is a must have for clean air. Without trees we will die. And that is what is happening rapidly on our planet. So in 20 years if this process keeps going on there won't be a way back. If the amount of trees comes under a certain minimum the trees will start to polute this world instead of giving us air to breath. The life what by that time is still living will start also to die. And we with it. It is such a horrible thought that in this short time this planet has there are still a few filthy rich people that wants to have their dominion over this world. And in the end they will die just as we will do.
I'm from Santiago Chile, and been a lot perhaps from 1999 that haven't got any rain or even lower 0 C temperatures in winter but while that occurs still being built houses in the mountain foothill altering the water cycle so how hell well we get rains if there is not chance that we get even clouds that cause rains, but everybody thinks that cutting fossile fuels are the solution without count the people with high income instead of use cleaner ways to heat up a home still using wood an 1900s way to heat up a house instead of cleaner ways like AC system or even gas systems even the public transport is a joke with an strong black smoke I don't think even have passed the euro 1 pollution system but are authorized to still there since carry 80 people instead of just 1 to 5 only and the diesel in Chile is cheaper than even gasoline as truckers union if touch any cent the price does an strike is all an whole joke I never believed in the global warming because if were the case in the United States would stopped a long time ago to snow which is basically water frozen in my country is not rains forever since idiots that believe be ecologist prefer destroy the mountain to have an huge mansion there and alterate the cycle of the nature.
I certainly agree with the quote/mantra "Less needs to be the new more." We must all consume less if we have any chance at all of saving this planet for future generations.
I agree. Read what I wrote about 2 hours after you. Isolation made me angry at first. But I have come to believe that changing our destructive behavior is going to be the fastest and best solution for addressing climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation.
You can move to the third world then if you're not a fan of energy consumption. Meanwhile many of the citizens from these developing countries are clamouring for more energy.
@@smac3691 I just got back from India where in some cities the AQI was close to 300 (we're like under 50 in NORCAL or LA even) ... they unfortunately do NOT appear to be reaping the benefits of being the work and materials resource for our consumerism in the developed countries. They are not getting the benefits, the unions, the return to their infrastructure - which some might consider exploitive - and that's why they are clamoring for more energy - because they are so impoverished, overpopulated, and forced into subscribing to our energy and business models to survive - to be competitive. That my friend is why jobs left the US.
This was eye opening and brilliant. I've never been hampered with religion or death so any time the Queen ( Mother Earth) says enough. It's enough. I'm good.
From a post elsewhere: "In the United States and the west, we do not arrest or execute dissident scientists, as the Russians did under the worst abuses of Stalin. However, we do punish dissident scientists in other ways, we simply cut off or deny their funding. In fact, most vocal skeptics are retired or emeritus; they do not have to worry about their next grant."

Yes, GM killed the electric auto though those who were leasing them wanted to buy them, but GM falsely said no one was interested. Though GM started to get back in the game, they're quitting again because of weak sales. The real issue is that technology is rapidly advancing, such that the newer electric cars have greater distance capability. Sweden is building an electric highway system so electrics can charge while driving, thus needing less batteries, decreasing the car's overall weight. New electrics with older tech, don't sell! A report this month shows Germany's emissions hit a 70 year low as it reduces reliance on coal in 2023. Some countries, the US included, are dragging their feet. Things are possible, where there's a will, there's a way!
Yet Germany is again after polish land to acquire its massive and mostly untapped coal and other mineral resources. Already polish pres Tusk mostly of German blood gas banned the polish people from some river ways and some as yet but likely German she'll company gas bought many of the polish mineral water sources for profit. Germany like girre is not a leader but a pirate under other name with no concern for the green movement or the planet... it comes down to simple greed. I am scottish BTW just not asleep.
Right! Pretty soon we'll all be where George Carlin is. And the Earth will keep right on spinning around the Sun as she has been doing for millions of years. She'll just more closely resemble her sister. Venus!!!
@@globaldigitaldirectsubsidi4493 George Carlin did a lot about it. He educated, thru humor, millions of people about the problems with humanity and caused by humanity. He opened up more peoples' eyes to our own shortcomings, than all other comedians and story tellers of his day, and even now. He worked very hard to undo the decades of conditioning people received via mainstream radio, movies (Hollywood in general) and especially TV Programming. He was totally based too.
My biology teacher enlightened us when I was 12 , that was 40 years ago. She had studied fruit flies but she said the model was true for all populations. Populations continually expand if they have resources to do so , they collapse when they exhaust the resources.
Right but we aren't single objective flies. Most animals also don't spread like fungi. Also did you watch the video. Rich people are burning the everything for money
It's disheartening that, to satisfy the greed of a few, we have exploited the earth and deceived as well, The most unfortunate part is that we are complicit in this. However Michael...
I investigated this clip- ruclips.net/video/wN6I_-zDNOA/видео.html - 360 has about 100 donars, and yes they were supported by a trust fund early on, a trust fund that has given a lot of money away. But the case is should we let rich people decide where their money goes or tax them?
That was incredible footage. He should be so ashamed of himself. A very creepy character who has "sell out" written all over him (sell out from the very beginning of his career).
And? The gods she worships say what? “Worship the earth, not the Maker of it!” Futile. How can you worship something that can be destroyed by something else?
Kenny Lim Not at all. I didn’t personally attack her. I love people of all religions. Judgement requires an opinion, facts require intellectual honesty. Her gods actually tell her to worship created beings. Her gods are real. What does it gain anyone to worship created things and not the creator who created them? And the fact she’s given her life to fight for the environment says what at the end of the day? That the earth is her idol. Am I lying?
@BoulderPM Nope, wrong; my personal ethics tell me how to feel. Being horrified by what human activity has done to this planet, and to our fellow species, comes straight from within me, not from some outward social agenda. Have a nice evening.
@@davidturoff8017 If it's me you're talking to, all I can say is that's a big difference between the way we think; I do worry about myself, but I also recognize that I am part of a much bigger picture, and I worry about all of us, including our fellow creatures, of whom we are supposed to be the stewards, not the ones who drive them to extinction. Trust me, if they all go, we will not survive. If the water, air and land are made too toxic for living things, then all this progress won't amount to shit. We'll be gone, all of us. And as these weeks of isolation have shown, eventually, Earth will heal and recover from the grievous damage we've caused. And she'll reclaim what we took, and poisoned. We have to go back to living with respect for the living things we share this planet with... or Earth will finally get so sick of us, that we'll lose our place on it for good. And it will be our own damned fault. This virus is a warning, make no mistake.
Best documentary I have seen in years. We are all dirty from the looks of it. Glad I don't have any children. My biggest contribution to nature so far.
@De Garbage pile of lies, you mean. “Planet of the Humans: Let’s Just Have a Think” “Planet of the Humans: Let’s Just Have a Think” "Moore’s Boorish Planet of The Humans: An Annotated Collection” April 25th, 2020 I’m glad you didn’t have any children, too, but the proximal causes of all our problems are the symptoms of Wetiko disease-inequality, capitalism, autocracy, addiction to domination symbolized & epitomized by fossil & fissile fuels.
I've never heard that before thank you. I've always said the same, that the earth is a living breathing and intelligent organism; the earth will kill us off before we her! A small tilt on her axis, an earthquake etc etc
Don't be so sure. We are almost certainly going to be our own demise. Despite everything we know and continue to learn--despite being the most evolved & intelligent species on Earth--we are ever so ignorant! We just don't seem to actually LEARN. History doesn't repeat itself....but stupid, arrogant, foolish humans do!
That's the thing. Everyone likes to rally and go to Earth Day festivals and all that. Well, not me personally but I digress. But once the rally and Earth Day is over? They get back to buying stuff and checking their instagrams and driving their cars to the mall. Very few are highly serious about these matters.
What does this empty statement mean? The only way to change is to wipe large portions of the population from the Earth and go back to early agriculture type living. Are you willing to do that? Oh by the way before the last 100 years about half of children died before the age of 5, our use of energy, mostly fossil fuels has changed that. Be my guest but my guess is you still want your hot shower.
It was/is a marketing scam just like earth hour- you remember earth hour don't you? That was where an Australian marketer wanted us all to sit in the dark for an hour. At first the leftwits did sit in the dark for an hour every year and then someone worked out that it made no difference as the base load generators powering the grid would have to burn more coal to rev the turbines back up to where they were an hour earlier. Of course the idiots at the abc never told anyone this as that would undermine their religion.
I look around at the hordes driving for leisure, shopping for fun, drinking and eating to excess, to the point of endangering their own health - doing-up their houses, and buying mobiles, computers new cars every few years, many without even recycling most of what they discard, unless theior local waste authority forces them to... from that I must conclude that... yes... the overwhelming majority of humanity behave like parasites: consume for the sake of it... and so we neee Earth Day!
Interestingly the Wizard of Oz was an allegory about cartel banks monitizing the economy which fuels unsustainable growth and the need to stay on the gold standard.
Richard Branson doesn't come out of this very well. He was always trying to cultivate an air of being a hippy, all concerned about people and environment and planet. You don't get to be a billionaire by being a nice person.
Branson was chatting up a 14yo girl, back in the 90s. Her dad went over and pointed out her age and asked him to stop. Minutes later he was doing it again. Since then, both Branson and the Virgin brand have always seemed rather sleazy to me.

@Matthew Baker You either didn't watch the video or you're lying through your teeth. Solar panel creation is a zero or negative sum product. GTFO of here with your environmentally destroying pipe dreams.
I had a very vivid dream, by vivid I remembered colors, details, and I wasn’t rushed, I contemplated the scene and even thought I’m dreaming but kept observing. What I was observing was a new species of human, the environment that they lived the structures they lived in and their anatomy. The environment was a sandy estuary type creek running though a settlement of small huts. Plant life was very basic, around the creek edges grew a bit of a grassy verge a few gnarly trees spread far and wide and no other plant life. People were collecting water from the creek. The beings were small slim and looked quite tired and under nourished. They were all wearing very drab tunics and then as I looked closely at a male who walked past me I noticed that he had grass like hair and his body hair was like mycelium. It was very hot, the environment looked like it was basically scorched. These people were not eating, they had nothing to eat. They were photosynthesising. Somehow this tribe had been genetically modified to photosynthesise. They were slightly plant like. The thing I remember was how basic, their lives were, how weak they were and how poor the environment was. It was like everything else had died of heat except these beings who could water themselves and gained all their nutrition from the burning sun.
Every minute of this film gave me anxiety 😢but I wasn’t prepared for the last 5 minutes.. A grown man with tears in his eyes 😥😥.what a journey that was .
Don’t worry about climate killing you. This war in Ukraine and the potential for nuclear was is more likely . The breakdown of our society and the lawlessness that will ensue is more of a threat than “climate change”
Yes it’s depressing, but not just that. It’s also informative and transformative and impactful. Did you watch right until the end? After only two screenings it already made changes occur. So, when someone says it’s not depressing, maybe it means “it’s depressing, sure, but it’s necessary and there are other qualities beyond being depressing... so let’s not just give it that single adjective for it can be many more things beyond that “
Folks really want to make a difference, and that's admirable. But most are so disconnected on how much power we use, and what it actually takes to sustain that energy reliably.
Saddest ending to a documentary I have ever seen before. Billionaires you can rest assured your day is coming. You can only take so much and push so far then the entire planet is coming for you.
Those corporations, industries and governments all belong to the same religion : the Fraternity of Freemasonry a.k.a satanism a.k.a the Anti-Christ. Their final goal is the One World Goverment, where everyone will have to receive the Beast's Mark if they want to trade or buy or to simply function. Lucifer used the Pharaoh to search for baby Moses, Lucifer used King Herod and Emperor Caesar to search for baby Jesus, and Lucifer used American President Woodrow Wilson to issue birth certificates to search for the 2 Witnesses and the 144,000 Chosen Ones mentioned in the Book of Revelation. God had told Daniel (Daniel 12:4) that in the last days, knowledge shall increases . Can't you see? We are in the Book of Revelation.
I came to that conclusion years ago people still think I'm crazy for living a more conscious lifestyle. Best way to make change is to change your own life.
@@BeavisandButthead-z8h What I meant was that in general people are dismissive of the HUMAN CAUSED MASS EXTINCTION EVENT unfolding around us to the point of not caring.

@@soyuzdavillan721 Far from it. For starters I'm Australian and I don't have any conservative friends. More the opposite. People just don't want to hear about it, don't really believe it, and that was my point.

After watching this I feel like I'm really out of the inner circle!! Blind we are! And those who see are powerless. I feel so emotionally disturbed. I will definitely try to do my part to leave a better world for my grandchildren..thank you for you Film. Heavy, heavy my heart weighs.
I felt the same after watching this pessimistic mockumentary, i strongly reccomend you take a look at this video based on current facts on the issue, /watch?v=cDqZVjAiAvs this doc paints a ridiculously pessimistic picture about our future without even checking scientific facts.
It can’t be up to the consumer unless they demand something better and more sustainable. The oceans are being raped of the ecosystem by big corporate companies at an alarming rate at the same time the individual has less freedoms. Plastic fishing nets is what you always see not plastic in general. But it would help if companies like nestle would think of a better way to sell water. Snapple used to sell beverages in glass bottles now it’s back to plastic which is difficult to recycle.
Will Man Ruin the Earth Beyond Repair? “A generation is going, and a generation is coming, but the earth remains forever.”-KING SOLOMON, 11TH CENTURY B.C.E. * To the ancient Bible writer, the fleeting nature of man stood in sharp contrast with the permanence of the earth. Indeed, for thousands of years, generations have come and gone, and yet the planet Earth has proved to be remarkably resilient and stable in its ability to host life-until now. The years since World War II have been dubbed by some as the Great Acceleration. In a single lifetime, people have seen remarkable advances in transportation, communication, and other technologies, which have brought unprecedented economic changes. Many enjoy a standard of living once thought impossible. In the meantime, the earth’s population has nearly tripled. All of this, however, has not come without cost. Human activities are said to be pushing the earth beyond its natural cycles. In fact, some scientists say we have entered a new geological epoch called the Anthropocene-an age in which humans are making an increasingly notable impact on the planet. The Bible foretold a time when man would ‘ruin the earth.’ (Revelation 11:18) Some wonder if we are living in such a time. How much further damage will be done? Is there a point of no return? Indeed, will man ruin the earth beyond repair? A POINT OF NO RETURN? Is the earth headed for a point of no return? Some scientists feel that the effect of changes can be difficult to predict. Because of this, they are concerned that we might be approaching “tipping points” where sudden and unanticipated climate changes could bring disastrous results.  Consider, for example, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Some believe that with sustained global warming, there is a point where the melt of this ice sheet could be irreversible. This is because ice cover naturally reflects the sun’s rays. But as the ice sheet thins and shrinks, the ocean below, which is less reflective, is eventually exposed. The dark ocean surface absorbs more heat, which in turn leads to greater melting. A self-feeding, runaway cycle could be created. The resulting rise in sea levels from the meltwater could spell disaster for hundreds of millions of people. MOUNTING ECOLOGICAL DEBT Various road maps have been drawn up to deal with the “planetary emergency” we now face. One long-standing strategy has been called sustainable development, which means promoting economic and social growth within the ecological limits of the planet. What have been the results? Sadly, like the global financial debt crisis, earth’s ecological debt continues to mount unabated. Humans continue to consume our planet’s resources faster than these can be replenished naturally. Can something be done? One ecologist frankly acknowledged: “In a sense, we don’t have any clue how to manage the planet successfully.” The situation very much fits the Bible’s assessment: “It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.”-Jeremiah 10:23. On the other hand, the Bible assures us that God, the Creator, will not allow man to bankrupt the planet environmentally. At Psalm 115:16, we read: “The earth [God] has given to the sons of men.” Yes, our planet is a “good gift” from our heavenly Father. (James 1:17) Would we expect God’s gift to be temporary in nature, as though it came with an expiration date? Of course not! That is evident from the inherent design of our planet. WHAT THE CREATOR PURPOSES The Bible book of Genesis tells in great detail how God carefully crafted the earth. Initially, the earth was described as “formless and desolate, and there was darkness upon the surface.” Yet, specific mention is made of “waters”-essential for life-existing on the planet. (Genesis 1:2) God then said: “Let there be light.” (Genesis 1:3) Evidently the sun’s rays penetrated the atmosphere, and there came to be light visible on earth for the first time. The formation of dry land and seas is then recounted. (Genesis 1:9, 10) Next, “grass, seed-bearing plants and trees yielding fruit” made their appearance. (Genesis 1:12) Elements needed for processes and cycles that are vital for life-such as photosynthesis-were thus in place. What was the purpose behind such extensive preparation? The ancient prophet Isaiah described God as “the One who formed the earth, its Maker who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited.” (Isaiah 45:18) Clearly, God’s purpose is for the earth to be inhabited by man forever. Sadly, man has misused God’s beautiful gift to the point of ruination. Yet, the Creator’s purpose has not changed. A man of old said: “God is not a mere man who tells lies, nor a son of man who changes his mind. When he says something, will he not do it?” (Numbers 23:19) In fact, rather than allow the earth to be ruined, the time is rapidly approaching for God to “bring to ruin those ruining the earth.”-Revelation 11:18. EARTH FOREVER OUR HOME Jesus Christ in his famous Sermon on the Mount said: “Happy are the mild-tempered, since they will inherit the earth.” (Matthew 5:5) Later in that same sermon, Jesus revealed the means by which the earth would be rescued from ruin. He instructed his followers to pray: “Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth.” Yes, God’s Kingdom, or government, will accomplish God’s purpose for the earth.-Matthew 6:10. Regarding the remarkable changes the Kingdom will bring, God declares: “Look! I am making all things new.” (Revelation 21:5) Does this mean that God will replace the earth with a new one? No, for there is really nothing inherently wrong with our planet. Rather, God will do away with those responsible for the planetary crisis, “those ruining the earth,” that is, the present-day human system with its governmental structure. This will be replaced by “a new heaven and a new earth”-a new heavenly government, God’s Kingdom, ruling over a new earthly society.-Revelation 21:1. To eliminate the ecological debt caused by man, God will rebalance the ecological budget, so to speak. Describing what God will do, the psalmist was inspired to write: “You care for the earth, making it abundantly fruitful and very rich.” With a regulated climate and, above all, God’s blessing, the earth will become a paradise yielding plenty of food.-Psalm 65:9-13. According to his secretary Pyarelal, Mohandas Gandhi, the late spiritual leader of India, observed: “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need but not for every man’s greed.” God’s Kingdom will address the root cause of earth’s problems by bringing about a change in people’s hearts. The prophet Isaiah foretold that under Kingdom rule, people “will not cause any harm or any ruin” to one another or to the earth. (Isaiah 11:9) In fact, millions of people today from all walks of life are already learning about God’s elevated standards. They are being taught to love God and neighbor, to show a thankful spirit, to care for the environment, to conserve natural resources, and to lead a life supportive of the Creator’s purpose. They are being prepared for life in a paradise earth.-Ecclesiastes 12:13; Matthew 22:37-39; Colossians 3:15.  The earth is far too precious to end up in environmental bankruptcy The creation account in Genesis concludes with the words: “God saw everything he had made, and look! it was very good.” (Genesis 1:31) Truly, the earth is far too precious to end up in environmental bankruptcy. We are comforted in knowing that our planet’s future rests safely in the hands of our loving Creator, Jehovah God. He promises: “The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it.” (Psalm 37:29) May you be counted among “the righteous,” who will call earth their eternal home. Man’s Mismanagement of Our Planet Atmosphere. “There is unequivocal evidence that Earth’s lower atmosphere, ocean, and land surface are warming . . . The dominant cause of the warming since the 1950s is human activities.”-American Meteorological Society, 2012. Land. “Nearly 50% of the land surface has been transformed by direct human action, with significant consequences for biodiversity, nutrient cycling, . . . and climate.”-Global Change and the Earth System. Oceans. “Around 85% of global fish stocks are over-exploited, depleted, fully exploited or in recovery from exploitation.”-BBC, September 2012. Biodiversity. “Many scientists think . . . the blame for [the next mass extinction], perhaps the fastest in Earth’s history, falls firmly on the shoulders of humans.”-From science.nationalgeographic.com. The Zone of Life  What is the “zone of life,” or biosphere? According to NASA, it is “the portion of Earth and its atmosphere that can support life.” Like the shell of an egg, the biosphere is a very thin layer, or zone, that encompasses our planet. The biosphere consists of living things and the environment-the atmosphere, the land, and the oceans-from which they derive the energy and nutrients needed for life. For instance, plants capture solar energy and use it to convert carbon dioxide, water, and minerals into oxygen and food. Humans and animals take in oxygen and food and return carbon dioxide and other matter to the system. And the cycle repeats itself. Thus, the biosphere can sustain life indefinitely. For good reason, then, God is described as “the One who established the productive land by his wisdom.” (Jeremiah 10:12) As one Bible scholar observed, “the habitable part of the earth is admirably fitted for the use and service of man.”
The quote i take away from this and made me really think is, "we are not trying to save the planet, we are trying to save our way if life". We can't "save the planet" without accepting that our way of life is unsustainable. We are trying to save Capitalism and consumerism. It's time to realise that Capitalism is dead.
Pleased to have this freely available. I live on a logging route, the trees in their factory farmed plantations are cropped constantly and replaced, huge trucks drive 6 days a week up and down to feed the biomass plant. Many enterprising workers cut through the night in summer, illuminated by huge spotlights.The tarmac roads degenerate and have to be repaired; the dense pine forests a dark and appear lifeless and rather oppressive. After they cut them, it looks like a wasteland. I’d heard they use diesel on the fires to keep the biomass plants working as the wood is wet and full of sap, but I didn’t realise the whole extent, just that it seems mad and delusional to burn trees because we don’t want coal etc etc. We are too greedy for our own needs and selfish. I am grateful for the way this movie has been made available.

Literally are you being serious right now! You look relatively young, you must have been in school at least in the past 8 years, surely you must have learnt about the reason why we need renewable energy and why fossil fuels are bad and need to be eradicated from daily use.
@György Gajdos Aye, funny m8. You have no idea what is going on here. We have the word "Dunkelflaute" which means that the wind stops at night. To deal with this, we built now natural gas power plants, fueled with russian gas. Makes a good share of our 30 euro cent per kilowatthour price. a few months ago we had more renewable energy than we needed. The price went negative, meaning we payed other countries to take our energy. The renewables share of 43% in 2019 was a mix, of which was 28% wind energy (www.umweltbundesamt.de/themen/klima-energie/erneuerbare-energien/erneuerbare-energien-in-zahlen). That means a total share of 12%. And for every kw wind energy installed we installed one kw of standby natural gas power plant. Electricity prices are expected to rise until 2030. If I take the rate they rose in the past years, we will pay 50 to 70 ct per kwh. So, what is the point you want to make?

When we are gone, the planet will still be here, but when the planet is gone we have an issue.
Thermo-industrial capitalism is going away shortly, whether we like it or not, and human population is likely to shrink for material reasons... But it is highly unlikely that all humans would disappear, even in worst case scenarios. We are causing a mass extinction, but there will be survivors. If there are a few resilient small animals to eat after the disaster, there will be human hunter gatherers to hunt them..
The point being, the planet doesn't care ; people don't care about the planet either, they just care about preserving an environment suitable to them .
All environmentalism is about humans, and what we want the environment to be like .

I think the big crisis of our times is our minds have been manipulated to give power to illusions. We've shifted to measuring growth, not in terms of how life is enriched, but in terms of how life is destroyed."

But how often are coal or other fossil fuel plants being replaced vs. solar/wind or other renewables?
@@scsi_joe yes ,it is happening, but the trend is very recent...this documentary really focused on years ago. The example below is India...but Asia represents 2/3rds of power development in the world.
Cheaper than coal
In 2018, India’s “levelized” cost of solar-power generation-an analysis removing the impact of direct subsidies and figuring in the costs of construction and financing for a new plant-fell to 14% below that of coal, the first time anywhere in the world that generating solar was cheaper than coal on that basis, according to international energy consulting firm Wood Mackenzie.
India’s national energy plan doesn’t anticipate construction of new coal power plants for at least several years. Even state-controlled Coal India, one of the world’s largest coal-producing companies, in November said it planned a pilot solar project as it navigated a future with less coal.
Across Asia, a region expected to account for two-thirds of the world’s new power demand during the next two decades, price declines will make wind and solar combined 17% cheaper than coal by 2030 on a levelized basis, says Wood Mackenzie. In India, solar generation will be almost 50% cheaper, it projects.

Mark Hemsworth it isn't about which form of energy is cheaper, the fact is solar is not green due to the sheer amount of mining and coal burning needed to create the infrastructure for it. Your article details a plant that can power the equivalent of a small US town. If we look early in the docu and see the solar array that purportedly could only run about ten US homes, the scale of the one in India would have to be massive. Extrapolate that to running a country or the world? Impossible. Population and energy usage reduction are the most realistic solutions i think.

Its very very single sided. It's not that its untrue. Most of it is true, but there is also a bit of information missing.
I am not a physicist, however from my education in the automotive business I learned this: Every time energy is exerted there has to be a heat exchange. Examples: Electric motors get warm when creating a rotary motion. Batteries get warm when charging or discharging powering lights and electric motors. Light bulbs get warm creating light. Ovens get hot to cook food. Two objects moving against each other (Rotating or sliding) create heat requiring an organic petroleum product to lubricate and keep cool. All forms of transportation (forward motion) require some form of a heat exchange to achieve this including internal combustion engines, electric motors, or hydrogen (which must be created retrieving hydrogen from water with a heat exchange process.) Burning of some type of fuel is required to heat a home whether it is a local source like coal, natural gas or electricity remotely created by burning other fuels like coal or natural gas at a remote location. Manufacturing items like melting iron ore with coke or natural gas to create steel. converting organic petroleum into molded plastic products. So where am I going with this statement? It is simple. For humans to survive on earth there has to be a consumption of some products like organic petroleum, vegetation (ash from burned vegetation makes excellent fertilizer that replenishes forests after a fire), or anything else that can be burned to produce any form of energy. The question is as this documentary demonstrates, when will sourced items that must be consumed (Burned) run out? This ia an excellent video. I was expecting praises and putting green energy on an alter to be prayed to. In conclusion something has to be consumed (burned) for humans to survive. It all started when humans burned things to keep warm and to cook food as they found uncooked animals were not good.

This is such a biased outlook on the big picture. We are all part of the problem! Blaming a set of individuals who have lived a less amount of time on the earth than previous generations is borderline ignorant. Regardless of the amount of consumption at the present moment, previous generations will always have consumed more of the earths resources, new generations just add to the problem. Yes it’s a battle for renewable resources and cutting down on our global footprint, but the main issue is our growth as a global population and not having enough resources to fill that need. If you think people born after 1996 who are just now 25 and settling into adulthood are the main contributors to our global crisis, and not the countless generations beforehand, then i don’t know what to tell you man, it’s just shifting the blame on the new guy. That’s the type of attitude that stagnates our progress to solving this. It’s their future too man, they inherit this.

Watching those 500 year old Joshua trees get pulverized in the name of "green energy" was more than angering, it was painful, heartbreaking. (While watching this movie I was reminded of the somewhat recent moves by the Sierra Club to label John Muir - who did so much to save the redwood forests - a white supremacist. This together with its support of burning "wood chips" (forests) in the name of saving the environment shows the true colors of the Sierra Club.). My eyes were opened to a lot of things I didn't know as well, although none of it was surprising.
@@betsyj59 I've kept my messenger notifications from Sierra Club active post documentary... and each time one comes through it reminds me of their hypocrisy.
@@betsyj59 I hundred percent agree with your feelings on the killing of the ancient Joshua trees! That was just gruesome and enraging.
The capitalistic mind loves to classify deserts (and swamps) as "wastelands" so they can exploited and abused in a whole variety of ways (nuke tests, military exercises, uranium mines, off-road vehicles, garbage dumps, toxic waste and radioactive waste dumps and so on...).
Even the ancient forests that I, and Muir, love(d) so much were up until very recently (and some still see them this way amazingly) were
considered by many to be biological deserts (see a slam on both the forests and the deserts) and cellulose cemeteries and were considered wasteful.
It was considered morally right and even morally imperative to cut these forests down and replace them with spindly overstocked monoculture tree farms/plantations where the trees would never be allowed to reach anywhere near their maximum ages and therefore would never be able to provide the ecologically stability and resilience that ancients forests do. Their impacts on carbon cycling and water cycling and quality and biodiversity, much more manageable forest fires and so on... are incredibly beneficial to life as we know it.

I live in the Netherlands. Near a place called Havelte. It was a place with a lot of trees. 100.000 of trees have been cut down. A beautifull old forest has totally disapeared. All the energy companies have been bought by a Swedish company called Fattenfall or sonething like that. They burn those beautifull old trees with coles for electricity.
Brussel / Europe has ordered that it is forbidden that in ten years there is any forest left in Holland. It is against the law to have any forest left. It is the stupidest thing i have ever heard.
They feed it to the Dutch people with a title of "Landscape Alteration". So that maybe one stupd tiny lizard comes back.

The Nostra would have been proud of such a legal system.
If we would turn it around then we could say that Europe and our own government is murdering people. A tree is a must have for clean air. Without trees we will die. And that is what is happening rapidly on our planet. So in 20 years if this process keeps going on there won't be a way back. If the amount of trees comes under a certain minimum the trees will start to polute this world instead of giving us air to breath. The life what by that time is still living will start also to die. And we with it.

Yes, GM killed the electric auto though those who were leasing them wanted to buy them, but GM falsely said no one was interested. Though GM started to get back in the game, they're quitting again because of weak sales. The real issue is that technology is rapidly advancing, such that the newer electric cars have greater distance capability. Sweden is building an electric highway system so electrics can charge while driving, thus needing less batteries, decreasing the car's overall weight. New electrics with older tech, don't sell!
A report this month shows Germany's emissions hit a 70 year low as it reduces reliance on coal in 2023. Some countries, the US included, are dragging their feet. Things are possible, where there's a will, there's a way!

I had a very vivid dream, by vivid I remembered colors, details, and I wasn’t rushed, I contemplated the scene and even thought I’m dreaming but kept observing. What I was observing was a new species of human, the environment that they lived the structures they lived in and their anatomy. The environment was a sandy estuary type creek running though a settlement of small huts. Plant life was very basic, around the creek edges grew a bit of a grassy verge a few gnarly trees spread far and wide and no other plant life. People were collecting water from the creek. The beings were small slim and looked quite tired and under nourished. They were all wearing very drab tunics and then as I looked closely at a male who walked past me I noticed that he had grass like hair and his body hair was like mycelium. It was very hot, the environment looked like it was basically scorched. These people were not eating, they had nothing to eat. They were photosynthesising. Somehow this tribe had been genetically modified to photosynthesise. They were slightly plant like. The thing I remember was how basic, their lives were, how weak they were and how poor the environment was. It was like everything else had died of heat except these beings who could water themselves and gained all their nutrition from the burning sun.

Will Man Ruin the Earth Beyond Repair?
“A generation is going, and a generation is coming, but the earth remains forever.”-KING SOLOMON, 11TH CENTURY B.C.E. *
To the ancient Bible writer, the fleeting nature of man stood in sharp contrast with the permanence of the earth. Indeed, for thousands of years, generations have come and gone, and yet the planet Earth has proved to be remarkably resilient and stable in its ability to host life-until now.
The years since World War II have been dubbed by some as the Great Acceleration. In a single lifetime, people have seen remarkable advances in transportation, communication, and other technologies, which have brought unprecedented economic changes. Many enjoy a standard of living once thought impossible. In the meantime, the earth’s population has nearly tripled.
All of this, however, has not come without cost. Human activities are said to be pushing the earth beyond its natural cycles. In fact, some scientists say we have entered a new geological epoch called the Anthropocene-an age in which humans are making an increasingly notable impact on the planet.
The Bible foretold a time when man would ‘ruin the earth.’ (Revelation 11:18) Some wonder if we are living in such a time. How much further damage will be done? Is there a point of no return? Indeed, will man ruin the earth beyond repair?
A POINT OF NO RETURN?
Is the earth headed for a point of no return? Some scientists feel that the effect of changes can be difficult to predict. Because of this, they are concerned that we might be approaching “tipping points” where sudden and unanticipated climate changes could bring disastrous results.

Consider, for example, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Some believe that with sustained global warming, there is a point where the melt of this ice sheet could be irreversible. This is because ice cover naturally reflects the sun’s rays. But as the ice sheet thins and shrinks, the ocean below, which is less reflective, is eventually exposed. The dark ocean surface absorbs more heat, which in turn leads to greater melting. A self-feeding, runaway cycle could be created. The resulting rise in sea levels from the meltwater could spell disaster for hundreds of millions of people.
MOUNTING ECOLOGICAL DEBT
Various road maps have been drawn up to deal with the “planetary emergency” we now face. One long-standing strategy has been called sustainable development, which means promoting economic and social growth within the ecological limits of the planet. What have been the results?
Sadly, like the global financial debt crisis, earth’s ecological debt continues to mount unabated. Humans continue to consume our planet’s resources faster than these can be replenished naturally. Can something be done? One ecologist frankly acknowledged: “In a sense, we don’t have any clue how to manage the planet successfully.” The situation very much fits the Bible’s assessment: “It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.”-Jeremiah 10:23.
On the other hand, the Bible assures us that God, the Creator, will not allow man to bankrupt the planet environmentally. At Psalm 115:16, we read: “The earth [God] has given to the sons of men.” Yes, our planet is a “good gift” from our heavenly Father. (James 1:17) Would we expect God’s gift to be temporary in nature, as though it came with an expiration date? Of course not! That is evident from the inherent design of our planet.
WHAT THE CREATOR PURPOSES
The Bible book of Genesis tells in great detail how God carefully crafted the earth. Initially, the earth was described as “formless and desolate, and there was darkness upon the surface.” Yet, specific mention is made of “waters”-essential for life-existing on the planet. (Genesis 1:2) God then said: “Let there be light.” (Genesis 1:3) Evidently the sun’s rays penetrated the atmosphere, and there came to be light visible on earth for the first time. The formation of dry land and seas is then recounted. (Genesis 1:9, 10) Next, “grass, seed-bearing plants and trees yielding fruit” made their appearance. (Genesis 1:12) Elements needed for processes and cycles that are vital for life-such as photosynthesis-were thus in place. What was the purpose behind such extensive preparation?
The ancient prophet Isaiah described God as “the One who formed the earth, its Maker who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited.” (Isaiah 45:18) Clearly, God’s purpose is for the earth to be inhabited by man forever.
Sadly, man has misused God’s beautiful gift to the point of ruination. Yet, the Creator’s purpose has not changed. A man of old said: “God is not a mere man who tells lies, nor a son of man who changes his mind. When he says something, will he not do it?” (Numbers 23:19) In fact, rather than allow the earth to be ruined, the time is rapidly approaching for God to “bring to ruin those ruining the earth.”-Revelation 11:18.
EARTH FOREVER OUR HOME
Jesus Christ in his famous Sermon on the Mount said: “Happy are the mild-tempered, since they will inherit the earth.” (Matthew 5:5) Later in that same sermon, Jesus revealed the means by which the earth would be rescued from ruin. He instructed his followers to pray: “Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth.” Yes, God’s Kingdom, or government, will accomplish God’s purpose for the earth.-Matthew 6:10.
Regarding the remarkable changes the Kingdom will bring, God declares: “Look! I am making all things new.” (Revelation 21:5) Does this mean that God will replace the earth with a new one? No, for there is really nothing inherently wrong with our planet. Rather, God will do away with those responsible for the planetary crisis, “those ruining the earth,” that is, the present-day human system with its governmental structure. This will be replaced by “a new heaven and a new earth”-a new heavenly government, God’s Kingdom, ruling over a new earthly society.-Revelation 21:1.
To eliminate the ecological debt caused by man, God will rebalance the ecological budget, so to speak. Describing what God will do, the psalmist was inspired to write: “You care for the earth, making it abundantly fruitful and very rich.” With a regulated climate and, above all, God’s blessing, the earth will become a paradise yielding plenty of food.-Psalm 65:9-13.
According to his secretary Pyarelal, Mohandas Gandhi, the late spiritual leader of India, observed: “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need but not for every man’s greed.” God’s Kingdom will address the root cause of earth’s problems by bringing about a change in people’s hearts. The prophet Isaiah foretold that under Kingdom rule, people “will not cause any harm or any ruin” to one another or to the earth. (Isaiah 11:9) In fact, millions of people today from all walks of life are already learning about God’s elevated standards. They are being taught to love God and neighbor, to show a thankful spirit, to care for the environment, to conserve natural resources, and to lead a life supportive of the Creator’s purpose. They are being prepared for life in a paradise earth.-Ecclesiastes 12:13; Matthew 22:37-39; Colossians 3:15.

The earth is far too precious to end up in environmental bankruptcy
The creation account in Genesis concludes with the words: “God saw everything he had made, and look! it was very good.” (Genesis 1:31) Truly, the earth is far too precious to end up in environmental bankruptcy. We are comforted in knowing that our planet’s future rests safely in the hands of our loving Creator, Jehovah God. He promises: “The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it.” (Psalm 37:29) May you be counted among “the righteous,” who will call earth their eternal home.
Man’s Mismanagement of Our Planet
Atmosphere. “There is unequivocal evidence that Earth’s lower atmosphere, ocean, and land surface are warming . . . The dominant cause of the warming since the 1950s is human activities.”-American Meteorological Society, 2012.
Land. “Nearly 50% of the land surface has been transformed by direct human action, with significant consequences for biodiversity, nutrient cycling, . . . and climate.”-Global Change and the Earth System.
Oceans. “Around 85% of global fish stocks are over-exploited, depleted, fully exploited or in recovery from exploitation.”-BBC, September 2012.
Biodiversity. “Many scientists think . . . the blame for [the next mass extinction], perhaps the fastest in Earth’s history, falls firmly on the shoulders of humans.”-From science.nationalgeographic.com.
The Zone of Life

What is the “zone of life,” or biosphere? According to NASA, it is “the portion of Earth and its atmosphere that can support life.” Like the shell of an egg, the biosphere is a very thin layer, or zone, that encompasses our planet.
The biosphere consists of living things and the environment-the atmosphere, the land, and the oceans-from which they derive the energy and nutrients needed for life. For instance, plants capture solar energy and use it to convert carbon dioxide, water, and minerals into oxygen and food. Humans and animals take in oxygen and food and return carbon dioxide and other matter to the system. And the cycle repeats itself. Thus, the biosphere can sustain life indefinitely.
For good reason, then, God is described as “the One who established the productive land by his wisdom.” (Jeremiah 10:12) As one Bible scholar observed, “the habitable part of the earth is admirably fitted for the use and service of man.”

Many enterprising workers cut through the night in summer, illuminated by huge spotlights.The tarmac roads degenerate and have to be repaired; the dense pine forests a dark and appear lifeless and rather oppressive. After they cut them, it looks like a wasteland. I’d heard they use diesel on the fires to keep the biomass plants working as the wood is wet and full of sap, but I didn’t realise the whole extent, just that it seems mad and delusional to burn trees because we don’t want coal etc etc. We are too greedy for our own needs and selfish. I am grateful for the way this movie has been made available.
It just takes a pocket full of sand...
The American Dream (also in Europe and so on, but not so pointed)....make a Million Dollar (I am from 1970).

Why? Was it made using a hand-crank powered video camera???? Didn't think so. Kinda like John Kerry lecturing us on our carbon footprint while he flies around by himself on a Boeing 777......... You greenies are restarted. Man did not make climate change, it's always changing from high see levels to low during the following ice ages and the earth is constantly cycling through periods of dramatic warming followed by dramatic cooling on a twenty six thousand year cycle.
Even though I am one of the despicable conservatives that you rail against, i find this one of the most honest analysis of the “green energy” movement. Thank you.
Literally are you being serious right now! You look relatively young, you must have been in school at least in the past 8 years, surely you must have learnt about the reason why we need renewable energy and why fossil fuels are bad and need to be eradicated from daily use.
Parts of the Movie footage and information is like decades old...Moore needs to update this movie
@György Gajdos Aye, funny m8. You have no idea what is going on here. We have the word "Dunkelflaute" which means that the wind stops at night. To deal with this, we built now natural gas power plants, fueled with russian gas. Makes a good share of our 30 euro cent per kilowatthour price. a few months ago we had more renewable energy than we needed. The price went negative, meaning we payed other countries to take our energy. The renewables share of 43% in 2019 was a mix, of which was 28% wind energy (www.umweltbundesamt.de/themen/klima-energie/erneuerbare-energien/erneuerbare-energien-in-zahlen). That means a total share of 12%. And for every kw wind energy installed we installed one kw of standby natural gas power plant. Electricity prices are expected to rise until 2030. If I take the rate they rose in the past years, we will pay 50 to 70 ct per kwh. So, what is the point you want to make?
@György Gajdos lol, sheep
