If you think that "green tech" is "green" or that it somehow eliminates fossil fuels out of the equation, please watch Jeff Gibbs' "Planet of the Humans" documentary. It will open your eyes to how this "green tech" movement really works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q2m_mCIrQY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q2m_mCIrQY

Here's the actual creator's YT page and full doc. That link is to some other person's page, who doesn't appear involved in the production. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk11vI-7czE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk11vI-7czE

At 36:50 there's a quite interesting segment that's basically I, Pencil [1] with the moral inverted: https://youtu.be/_Q2m_mCIrQY?t=2210 https://youtu.be/_Q2m_mCIrQY?t=2210 [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I,_Pencil https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I,_Pencil. I read the original for the first time recently, and was amused that it ended with a rant against the post office.

Before anyone takes this documentary seriously, please do some research. This[1] Wikipedia article is a good starting point, but there are a lot of sources showing how misleading and inaccurate this documentary is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_of_the_Humans#Factual_accuracy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_of_the_Humans#Factual_a...

  Before anyone takes above comment seriously, do some investigation of your own. That article is nothing more than a damage control and is completely funded by the "green tech" billionaires. Just look at the history log. If you want to see how far these """green""" tech billionaires have gone to censor and suppress this documentary and what kinds of legal tricks and other pressure they've used, read Max Blumenthal's article. >‘Green’ billionaires behind professional activist network that led suppression of ‘Planet of the Humans’ documentary https://thegrayzone.com/2020/09/07/green-billionaires-planet-of-the-humans/ https://thegrayzone.com/2020/09/07/green-billionaires-planet... Michael Moore also interviewed Max about this amazing investigation into how these rich people censor things: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDIEqHGAveA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDIEqHGAveA
