"Planet Of The Humans": Controversy And Enlightenment

"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."

Here is the video.

Below are some reviews of the movie. In my opinion, the subject of climate change/green energy is the most important issue facing humanity in the intermediate and long-term. While the video is alarmist in tone, I think some of it is necessary.

Comment: Sometimes science is overlooked by both right and left political ideologues when discussing the subject. How else can you understand why we are not aggressively promoting nuclear power?
