Planet of the Humans (1 Viewer)

I just watched it, and I thought it was pretty well done.

It was removed from YouTube due to a copyright strike on four seconds of footage by someone opposed to the message of the film. Al Gore perhaps? When Richard Branson was asked if he considered Gore a prophet, he responded "uh, how do you spell prophet/profit?". See the exchange here.

I think it's a good thing to look at the actions of these environmentalist groups and individuals with a critical eye. Unless you prefer to be lied to, so that you can feel good about green energy.

Since Michael Moore is an outspoken believer in anthropogenic global warming (AGW), it's refreshing to know that he, at least, is aware of the damaging environmental impacts of 'renewable' and 'green' energy projects. He is questioning the efficacy of the process, not its objectives.

Personally, I have no inherent objection to changing the world's reliance on "fossil fuels," if there were provably effective ways to do so taking into consideration undesirable environmental consequences. Not paying attention to undesirable consequences, however, is possibly worse than the original problem itself.
