“Are we avoiding looking too closely because we don’t want to know the answer?”
“You use more fossil fuels to do this than you’re getting benefit from it. You would have been better off just burning fossil fuels in the first place, instead of playing pretend.”
‘This absolutely cannot extend civilization’s life. This relies on the most toxic and industrial processes that we’ve ever created.”
Massive environmental destruction!
Population control.
51:50 “What I’m hearing is that if I haven’t come to grips with my own anxiety about death and life — and presented with a reminder of that — I’m highly likely to make some tragic decisions for the community.”
“Biomass plants” burn toxic substances and trees, polluting communities and clearcutting forests.

The profit motive: “What if they, themselves have become misguided? What if they made some kind of deal they shouldn’t have made, and are leading us all off the cliff? …hiding under a cover of ‘green.'”

Michael Moore Presents: Planet of the Humans | Full Documentary | Directed by Jeff Gibbs
Apr 21, 2020
Michael 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.
