Micheal more has always been a sensationalist hack. So many half truths and outright falsehoods in this film. Using footage/research from 10-15 years before the film was made with no effort to include updated data is disingenuous as can be. The anti-growth statements are a diversion from the real question: What is the best way to supply energy defined as utilizing the least resources to do so while producing the least pollution. Of course reduction of consumption will help no matter how we source our power.

Most biomass is run off waste wood from milling, disruptions in lumber markets mean that there is sometimes not enough waste to completely power the plant but the power it generates is still needed. The net energy generated by waste, including tires and RR ties means that these plants generally operate at a surplus. The "truth" in this film is very selectively edited to give you the feeling you had. Renewables are not the answer right now, but eventually, they will be, you can't force change without having negative impacts a lot of which will be far worse than burning extra lumber that can't be used in construction.

I think one of the simplest things everyone can start to do, is to REPAIR clothes, devices, washing machines, etc. We are constantly being marketed into buying new stuff , even if the old stuff still works just fine.If we could re-design our economic system to 90% repair, that would be a milestone in sustainability

Ideally consumers would force producers to make their products 100% easily recyclable and repairable but lacking that consumer consensus I think it is the prevvy of government to compel corporations to make their products as environmentally friendly as possible we need to do this for our children

@zapador 4 жыл бұрын

I agree! Another point along the same lines that I usually like to bring up is this: We've spent most of our technological advances on making things cheaper instead of more durable and long lasting. We have the technology and materials to make products significantly longer lasting. I firmly believe that one of the easiest things we can do now is to demand that governments require companies to offer a very long warranty period. If all products came with for example a 10 or 25 year warranty, depending on the type of product, then the capitalist system would become part of the solution for the problem it has created. I have great faith in the capitalist system in the sense that it is effective. I'm sure companies would find a solution efficiently and quickly. All of the cheap **** we can buy today would simply disappear as it would be unprofitable. People throw away a washing machine after a few years because it was only 199$. Had they instead bought a quality product like a Miele it would be going strong for more than 20 years and if it broke after just a few years they'd have it repaired because it wasn't just 199$. Products should also be designed in ways so they can be repaired and any attempts to prevent repairs, like for example Apple is doing, should be illegal. Repair manuals / schematics should be freely available so anyone can setup a repair shop. Some people might argue that these extended warranties would cause products to become prohibitively expensive and that may seem like a valid argument - washing machine for 1199$ or a pair of shoes for 200$? Holy cow! I would however argue that it isn't the case, products that are cheap to buy are rarely the cheapest in the long run and in the worst case it is a break even. A 200$ pair of shoes can last a decade if they can be re-soled several times and a quality washing machine can go on for literally a few decades. We should approach all products like we (at least used to) do with cars - you service it at a regular interval and if something breaks it can be repaired.

One look at Michael and America's problem is obvious. If they could permanently close the fast food restaurants and especially the bakeries Americans would be a lot healthier. But then people would live longer and the pensions would bankrupt the country faster. We could cap incomes at $70,000 and have one healthcare for all people, but then government employees, business owners, lawyers, Wall Street and others would have a fit. We could do nothing and pretend that everything is fine, but eventually we will have armed violence with the poor against the wealthier people. We could pollute the environment at an even faster pace and vaccinate everyone and keep track of them with Quantum Dot Tattoos and if they get out of line the Gates Foundation Tattoos might be able to just kill you. Try to avoid bringing American politics into this as crippling debt is a world problem.

I haven't watched the film yet, but I have long had a feeling that most "green" businesses are simply capitalizing on the "green" in the name and not actually doing anything useful. There are sadly so many people driving around in their overpriced Tesla's with a condescending smirk, feeling they are saving the environment. Yet, never checking how much carbon is emitted in the production of the car, the battery and most importantly, the power you charge it with. Climate change is no different from other political matters in one important regard: terrible supporters are worse than strong opposition. And I believe Al Gore, and possibly Michael Moore, have done more harm to the "green" cause than good. Their divisiveness and blatant dishonesty (at least in Gore's case) have pushed so many people into climate change denial it's horrible.

A lot of people bulk shop using SUVs to big box stores (Costco, WalMart) buying processed preserved packaged goods that can last long time in storage. It's part of the suburban sprawl lifestyle but people in cities and the country also do it. I'm not saying that is what you are doing. However this is the exact thing that MM is getting at: consumer options that are greenwashed. However, MM's film is very badly made. You don't build trust using deceptive out of date footage. And trust is badly needed for us to work together. Lots of people have been working on this and have much more accurate and up to date info on what works and doesn't work. But many will see the support for them drop as people abandon environmentalism and retreat into the individualistic American ethic (that the film offers no alternative to!?!!!) and pe perfect survivalist consumers. It would be better to live close and walk to the store regularly and have a community relationship with the store and the farmers. Small towns in Europe have done a good job with this. Also they share their farm fields amongst the village. It's not communist at all, in fact in the East of Europe this community village farm system was damaged by big state interventions so its stronger in West Germany but not East Germany for instance. The English/American fences and castles for rural land system is a big part of the problem. And has been for a long long time.

I go to the store several times a week, and get a lot of fresh produce, ride a bus or walk to do so, generally on the way home from work, and eat well without consuming as much packaged food as most Americans, and without consuming any animal cadavers, far more destructive than taking a few trips to the store.

@@lduych I watched the whole film. Like most things, it's a mixed bag. However, if you search ["the planet of the humans" review], you'll find blogs by environmentalists, various technologists and others that credibly dispute some of the films assertions. One example: the "degraded" wind and solar installations displayed are not representative or typical. Another: many of the films "facts" are outdated. - I would note that a power line coming into a "carbon-neutral" facility proves absolutely nothing except that there's electrical power available. - There IS widespread agreement that biomass combustion is not generally a sustainable source of large-scale energy. But "sustainable" and "large-scale" need to be defined for this assertion as well. - Personally, I can tell you that mountaintop removal for coal mining is NOTHING LIKE creating a clearing for wind turbines. - Solar installations are commonly lasting 30 years or more, not always derelict after 20 as reflected in the movie. - There IS analysis that confirms the net energy produced by modern solar and wind devices will exceed the inputs. But there is a "payback period". So, for example, we don't get net benefits by installing a solar panel and only using it on weekends to charge the car. The same is true of hydro. Bottom line: technology alone doesn't make a difference - what counts is employing that technology in a way that actually has an impact on emissions, mining, waste, etc. A systems approach is needed. There's an impact from all and any human activity. Including KZbin!

They're right about some things like biofuels but overall this is trying to discredit renewal energy despite there being some major improvements in recent years.

The fossil fuel industry receives billions, every year, in tax subsidies that we, in the wind and solar industry, have worked tirelessly to match. I've met with U.S. Senators in the Senate office and on Capitol Hill, talking directly with them about giving us the same tax breaks as the coal, gas and oil industries receive. The Dems and Independents have been wonderful to work with while Republican Senators refuse to ever meet with us. We haven't asked for special treatment, just to be fair, either give us the same tax credits or eliminate ALL tax credits for energy production. It's easy for Moore and others to be armchair quarterbacks and scoff at the wind and solar industries which totally PISSES me off as we're doing our absolute best to help save this wonderful planet while Moore and his buddies laugh in their mansions, flying around the world in their leer jets, mocking us every step of the way.

NOT real news, they falsely blame a virus (which the world has seen worse and even plagues) on CO2 levels. Also they don't seem to know that the very oxygen we breath was originally CO2 before the trees converted it to oxygen. Without CO2 there is NO LIFE. Also all that carbon in the coal and oil originally was in our atmosphere before trees removed it and later died. So burning it is merely replacing what was removed. Meaning we have had much higher CO2 levels during the life of our planet. An argument can even be made that free oxygen is the real pollutant as at one point our planet didn't have any, it came from thousands of years of plant life creating it while diminishing the CO2 levels in our atmosphere. Also they don't discuss that ALMOST ALL HEAT PRODUCED in our atmosphere is created by the water vapor that is present. CO2 has minimal impact on heat production when compared to water vapor in the air. So why is no one talking about drying our air, or perhaps finding ways to shade the planet instead of fabricating excuses to run everyone's life as we are an energy economy and been so since the stone age.

Micheal Moore touches on it, but like any good salesman leaves it to be your decision that the only way to save the planet is to decide who gets to live and who doesn't. Yes, we will run out of fossil fuels in a few hundred years, but there are alternatives, the rush to put those in place is causing far more damage than good.

So what is it that I do....??? OK, I do use an air conditioner but here's how I use it. First off, I'm 84 years old and heat can be a dangerous thing for me. I have a one bedroom apartment. But I don't use that bedroom to sleep in. In my living room I have my couch and there is a small 5000 btu air conditioner. It's about 7 feet from where I usually sit. As long as I am sitting there it works just fine. That's all the air conditioning that I need. That bedroom, kitchen and bathroom will be hot but so what? I don't spend much time in those rooms and fail to see the necessity to cool that space, it would be wasteful. I sleep on my couch and it's just fine. So even though I have about 600 sq ft I'm only treating about 75 feet of that space. That's one of the things that I do. Little things add up.

Anyone that TELLS you what science says is LYING to you. Science doesn't say anything, it has no spokesperson, it has no politics, it has no conclusions, or feelings, or beliefs. Sadly, IF this is a thing, then why is no one talking about the science? All that carbon found in coal and oil used to be in the atmosphere, so burning it is simply RETURNING it to the atmosphere where it originally came from (NOT adding it). Water vapor produces almost ALL of the heat in our atmosphere and they didn't even mention that. Water vapor is the BIGGEST greenhouse gas in our atmosphere, so why do you think none of these power hungry authoritarians ever mention that? Anyone that tells you to give them power to save the planet that doesn't mention water vapor, or where the carbon in coal and oil originally came from, or sun spot cycles, and much more isn't having an honest discussion on climate change, they are charlatans.
