I've seen only 10 minutes of highlights but
the whole movie of 1 hour and 40 minutes is free on YouTube.
It's an amazing find and has generated much controversy.

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.

FAQ, Discussion Guide, http: https://planetofthehumans.com/

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.

Thanks Pecca,
I didn't see that thread.
You should have posted it in the proper place - here.

Yes - a film about the environment.

Greggy - stop being puerile.

Did you watch it - do you have a comment?

Why?

Yes - it discussed wind turbines and how so much energy
is used to create them that it's a net loss.
Also- is the problem that within 10 to 20 years
they no longer work and have to be dumped somewhere
so there's a decommissioning charge as well.

While it was good for the film to bring to attention the resources renewables consume, I didn't agree with the film maker's solution that "using less" is the solution towards Climate Change. I think it is hypocritical for people in developed nations to propose this as a solution when 2 - 3 billion people have little or no access to electricity.

The film has been criticised from multiple sides. one of the main criticisms is that much of the footage is quite outdated. For example, the footage of the solar festival at around the start of the film was taken in around 2005, while the footage of Michael Bloomberg at a press conference was taken in 2011.

So perhaps you can tell us about the solar panels made solely using renewables?
