Michael Moore definitely knows how to stir up a controversy, sometimes to good effect. But it is nearly universally agreed that Planet of the Humans (like Planet of the Apes, ha-ha, get it?) gets the science and technology all wrong, with disastrous policy implications. No, let me be precise. Policy prescriptions:
- Abandon renewable energy, because it's a fraud. Wind and solar increase CO2 emissions.
- Abandon all steam-powered technology since the Industrial Revolution, because that's the only way to stop CO2 emissions.
- Radically reduce the global population immediately, because that's the real problem. But without saying how.
If you haven't seen the movie, those points must seem like...exaggerations? A hit job? Hoaxes? No, it's what they say out loud.
You would have been better off just burning the fossil fuels in the first place.
