    it's funny how we can literally create rivers out of nothing, move mountains, pump more sewage uphill than water that flows over Niagara falls, and build ships that are bigger than city blocks, and yet some people still cling to the argument that climate change can't be man made because we couldn't make a big enough difference to impact the overall climate. We aren't just changing the climate, there is almost no part of the surface of this planet that hasn't been changed in some way by our presence, and the scope and scale is ever increasing. It's both impressive and terrifying.

We have 8 billion people on this planet, who all want to live comfortably, with access to modern technology, so our energy and resource needs are growing. And by the way, the "All other species that has ever lived can live sustainably" line is nonsense. Humans are the only species that cares about sustainability to any degree. All other organisms would consume endlessly and cause their own destruction given the chance. Look at various invasive species that have devastated ecosystems.

It's a reminder that with great power comes great accountability, urging us to tread more thoughtfully as stewards of this magnificent planet.

    I had no idea S.Korea constructs so many container ships. 100 a year is insane, they must be making huge amounts of cash.

      Yes they make a lot of money because they are efficient but not that much money for their hard work since their margins are so low, ≈ 98% of their money just goes away because to buy the materials, machinery and pay their employees and more.

      China constructed even more container ships, because they currently had the largest shipbuilding industry in the world.
      China 50%
      South Korea 24%
      Japan 17%

    Such an awesome documentary. I’d love to see any update. Humans have never had more construction on going that is happening now.
