Michael Moore presents a film by Jeff Gibbs
Seen it yet?
https://m.
From Variety:
A flashing red light to the green power movement, Planet of the Humans offers disillusioning evidence that much of whats currently promoted as renewable energy is ineffectual, wasteful and far from clean. Released to YouTube on the eve of Earth Days 50th anniversary, its a provocative if straight-up depressing takedown of brand-name environmentalism that offers much bad news with scant constructive upside. This debut directorial feature for executive producer Michael Moores longtime producer and composer Jeff Gibbs is also the first documentary project under their Rumble Media banner. Both filmmakers will host a live discussion the evening of April 22 on the docs YouTube channel and other platforms
A very sobering look at renewable energy and infinite growth on a finite planet.

He does not narrate it.
It was excellent !!!
If you value the truth it is well worth watching.

Every environmental hero seems a total sellout.
Very eye-opening

Too bad the stench of Michael Moore is attached to it in any way.

Sobering truths that help explain how we are all manipulated by the 1%.

If you think that's depressing take a look at what's happening with arctic sea ice this year.
99% of what's being discussed will be completely meaningless when the latent heat of fusion turns against us.
