A long list of Hollywood A-list talent is joining leftist activist billionaire Laurene Powell Jobs to star in a feature film about climate change.
The film appears to be a major effort by a huge number of Hollywood A-listers, including Paul Rudd, Evan Peters, Amy Ryan, Paul Giamatti, John Turturro, Tatiana Maslany, and Jason Clarke for a film billed as a “darkly comic drama” about global warming. It will be produced by Sony Pictures Classics with Tom McCarthy to direct, Deadline reported.
The film, based on the Nathaniel Rich book, Loosing Earth, is supposedly a true story “set at a beachside resort in Florida in 1980, when twenty experts gather for a weekend conference on a global issue that is starting to gain traction: the effects of Co2 emissions on the climate. The group of scientists, activists, and policymakers have one simple mandate from Congress — write a statement about what to do. Easier said than done.”
The executive producer list is extensive and include Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Alex Gibney, Wendy Schmidt, Richard Perello, and Robert Kessel, as well as Thomas Bidegan, Noé Debré, Nathaniel Rich, Billy James Parrott, Laurene Powell Jobs and Davis Guggenheim.

A movie will end climate change huh Laurene if not the money is good.
Gee, I wonder how she got her billions?
They should highlight the risks of Sharknado attacks! It is one of my biggest fears. Sharknadophobia?
I wish these tech geniuses would write wills to forbid this crap. Mrs. Jobs, Mrs. Bezos and Mrs. Gates have given TENS OF BILLIONS to the absolute worst NGOs. Andrew Carnegie funded 2,509 libraries, 5,600 organs for churches, a university, and so much more, and setup a corporation with strict limits on what could be donated to whom. These stupid bitches fund anti-American Maxist nutbags.
As the northeast digs out from a major snowstorm.
“By the way, climate change movies are the worst - people want to be entertained, inspired and respected - not lectured, insulted and mocked.”
The dumb Avatar movies have a global warming angle and made zillions of dollars. People just wanna believe!!! Believe a narrative where they are the good guys. In the past it was religious narratives that dominated in The West. That gave people their meaning and place in the universe, which women need to produce more babies.
You can go to the Florida shore, and within mere hours, you can see immense ocean level change — due to Global Warming of course. The contrast between the 1980 and 2026 Florida shore will be amazing.
Good for them! flushing money down the toilet and stimulating the local economy
How is it that apparently so many “billionaires” are f’ing whacked-out???
“Climate Change? Not this feces again!”
This “issue” has been very dormant since our tech overlords class bailed. Their tech opinion molders too. Why?
All their new AI data centers are sucking the electric grid dry. And they need much more electric for their AI data centers building frenzy. These AI data farms need no-fluctuating electricity from base load powers plants, that burn natgas and coal. Solar and wind power are not steady supply.
Coal can be burned super duper cleanly these days. Even scrubbing out the mercury emissions. I asked Grok about this. We need a coal comeback.
“set at a beachside resort in Florida in 1980”
About this time when THE COMING ICE AGE was still the rage.
From POPULAR SCIENCE, Feb 1980..

Changing the weather intentionally or otherwise weather modification..(Earth cooling vs Greenhouse effect)
“Do you suppose we can learn enough, soon enough, to pull off a balancing act with the CO2 blanket saving us from another ice age?”
Laurene Powell Jobs gives a lot of money to pro-abortion causes... which is ironic because if Steve’s unwed mother had chosen abortion instead of putting him up for adoption, Laurene wouldn’t be Mrs Rich Bitch.
More like....Loosing my bowels.
Left wing billionaires are the most destructive element in our country.
Wait. A comedy? Global warming is kinda funny in a slapstick Mel Brooks kinda way.
I was excited to watch Avatar when it came out - I was willing to try ignoring the climate change agenda, the white people are bad agenda and all the other agendas - and just enjoy it as a story.
But it’s like eating a meatless burger - t might fool you while you’re eating it but it doesn’t satisfy.
Every time I watch a Hollywood production i deepen my resolve never to watch another one.. I wonder how many people are like me a at least on a subconscious level - slowly getting turned off.
They may still be making millions on some of these movies, but the industry is dying.
“Every time I watch a Hollywood production i deepen my resolve never to watch another one.”
I am looking forward to “The Odyssey” by Christopher Nolan this July. I will go to an actual theater, the first time in 10 years. This will be a swords n sandals Hollywood epic.
