Michael Moore's Planet of the Humans is a film all atheists should see. It exposes the Green Movement. The truth hurts.

Please explain your 'intersection' between the Green Movement and a lack of belief in a deity.

Yeah, not wasting my time watching a movie that so egregiously gets the facts wrong: [thesolarnerd.com]

Don't waste your time judging for yourself. Read a review penned by as apologist for the "renewable" energy industry. An industry disguised as a grass roots movement funded by trillion dollar entities. It's a good film. Open your mind to other opinions. It's not right wing propaganda, it's like the title of Al Gore's book, an inconvenient truth.

@barjoe I'm actually quite educated on the topic thank you, and there are plenty of other articles out there pointing out the glaring factual errors this film perpetrates. Sure there's problems with green energy, but it's oil and especially coal that are destroying the climate. If the environmental and health costs they are passing onto the public had to be included in their costs, they'd be gone in no time. [newsweek.com]

@Druvius "Green Energy" is oil and coal. I didn't question your education, I question your objectivity.

@Druvius I took the time to read your Solo Nerd as your Newsweek article. They feed into divisiveness, assuming anything that goes against the prevailing wisdom is the voice of a right winger. No better than morons from the right, labeling and name calling, anything that goes against their agenda.

What offends you about the 'green' movement?

It keeps us dependent on fossil fuels and probably won't be able to solve the climate crisis.

This film is very pessimistic and gloomy. I think they expose many problems but come to the wrong conclusion. They assume that the only way for humanity to continue into the future is for the population to be reduced drastically and for humans to go back to less convenient lifestyle with less dependency on energy. They left out the nuclear option which I believe is the way to go as we move forward.

The 'nuclear option'???

Nothing offends me about the Green Movement- they're just misguided.

@RoboGraham I agree. Nuclear energy is the only clean way to continue to power the grid. The environmental movement has tried to curtail nuclear energy production with their political correctness. The overpopulation of the planet is a problem that isn't being widely addressed and the film does so. The Catholic Church among other religious entities are greatly responsible for uncontrolled overpopulation. The film didn't dare go there. This film does address atheism though. Unfortunately I think the film comes to the correct conclusion.

@davknight

The nuclear option is the use of nuclear energy to power the grid.

@barjoe Yes, nuclear is the greenest power source, and really is our last best hope of mitigating global warming.

@barjoe

We certainly should do something about over population. This constant increase can only continue for so long before we strain our planet to the breaking point. It's a very tricky issue because regulating reproduction is a massive violation of freedom. I think it will need to be done voluntarily. It seems that it's happening already in the 1st world. We and other developed nations are willingly reducing our birthrates.

It's really depressing that virtually none of our leaders are supporting the best green energy source. There is a massive stigma related to nuclear because of it's association with the destruction of cities and the Chernobyl disaster. The thing that people don't realize though is that Nuclear is by far the safest option and the cleanest. And there is more good news, we already have large amounts of enriched uranium on hand, all we need to do is take it out of the war heads and put it into the power plants.

@RoboGraham Birth control and reproductive rights. Freedom to overpopulate the planet? Massive famine and disease, but give them freedom to procreate at will.

Make your case in less time.

Because of the overpopulation of the planet, which for religious and other reasons isn't being addressed, the human race is doomed. People don't want to conserve, they want to look for easy answers to continue wasteful and self indulgent lifestyle.

Watch the film. It's worth your time.

@barjoe You’re projecting. “People” implies all people.

@yvilletom No it doesn't imply "all" people. The public in general. How specific does one have to get? Let's not be ridiculous.

@barjoe Try “Some people don’t want to conserve, ....” or even “Many people....” You are projecting.

@yvilletom I'll go with most. If it weren't most people not wanting to change their lifestyle, we wouldn't have a problem. You are arguing semantics. You like to argue. I don't.
