As environmentalists celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day this week, a new documentary poses a sobering question.
What if wind farms, solar panels and other green energy projects are not enough to save the planet and humanity simply cannot sustain life as we know it?
“Planet of the Humans,” executive produced by Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore and written and directed by Jeff Gibbs, asks hard questions about what it sees as the failure of well-meaning efforts to halt climate change.
“It seems like we have been losing the battle,” Moore told Reuters. “We are in deep, deep trouble.”
"Planet of the Humans," which will be released on YouTube on Tuesday free of charge to the public, argues that the mainstream environmental movement has sold out to corporate interests and that solar and wind energy components and electric cars rely too heavily on deforestation and electricity generated from coal and natural gas to produce them.

Moore said that he, like many people, thought electric cars were a good idea, “but I didn’t really think about where is the electricity coming from?”
“I assumed solar panels would last for ever. I didn’t know what went into the making of them,” Moore added, referring to raw materials, including quartz, and the fossil fuels needed to manufacture the panels.

Yeah, why don't you learn something before you spew.
Find where he lives and steal the copper wire from his AC.
He could self euthanize and stop wasting future people resources...
Hot air contains CO2 - his very breathing is killing the future.
YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM Mr Moore
