Great movie criticizing the 'green' movement

 I just watched this mind blowing film.

It's directed by Jeff Gibbs, produced by Michael Moore.

M Moore doesn't appear in the film.

It's 1hour 40 min, it is worth every second.

It's a critic to the green movement, to 'green' fuels, solar panels, batteries, electric cars, wind power etc.

You may not agree with details, but there is something SUBSTANTIAL in this movie, that you can relate to what's happening to our Health.

Gibbs talks about the way humans are leading to our planet collapse.

The same collapse that's happening to our health, in a way...

We, people with health problems, have to be swimming against the current to try to find clean food, clean air, clean water, electrosmog free environments, less heavy metals, clean treatments etc.

Same heavy metals present in our mobile phones, in electric car batteries, in solar panels, in TV screens, computer monitors etc...

The dirty planet is not OUT there, but INSIDE us.

So in this sense, I highly recommend you to watch this before it will be taken off the internet, for obvious reasons.

Very enlightening.

He said that all these green movements haven't accomplished much, in fact, they have not accomplished anything (so tiny...) compared to what the Covid19 is doing.

One week confinement brought more wellness to the planet than 50 years of green movement has.

Watch this now before it will be taken off by google censor or something alike!!

I haven't watched the whole thing, but I saw part of it and can vouch for their general argument.

When BMW claimed that their i3 would produce 30% less CO2 over it's lifetime than a similarly-sized diesel car, they forgot to mention that compressed natural gas cars already do that while also delivering some of the emissions benefits of fully electric cars (since methane burns cleaner).  When they claimed that it would produce 50% less CO2 when powered from wind or solar, they didn't include the CO2 footprint of the infrastructure needed to support that.  They also took credit for using recycled aluminum, but almost all aluminum is already recycled. (See the arguments for favoring post-consumer recycled material to understand why that matters. They're just displacing other users of the same 'clean' resources, not increasing the amount of clean raw material available.)

Tesla has never provided that type of estimate, despite benefiting from $300,000,000 in federal and state subsidies in the US alone.  They also haven't cooperated with any of the third party studies.  One of the most-cited studies was by VUB University in Belgium, which has conflict of interest because they sell consulting services to electric car manufacturers.  The other high-profile study was written by a team that had no manufacturing expertise,, and was consequently unqualified to estimate the energy needed to make the car.

the hypocrisy exists on all levels.
