Lowest Common Denominator, Leftist, Kumbaya

Nonsense.

Its also one of the worst documentaries I've ever seen, there is no strong focus, no rigor, no compelling message. Instead we get a hodgepodge of leftie mantras thrown together without rhyme or reason.

Its just pathetic emotional pleas, and third world people whining about climate change. Maybe if these people would stop bredding like rabbits despite diminishing resources, the problem wouldn't be so bad.

I'm all for mitigating climate change, but there is very little constructive information here.

The people he interviewed are directly seeing and feeling the immediate effects of climate change and trying to say NO to the selfish greedy pigs of the world who make deserts and sewers out of paradise.

These warriors are a lot more courageous and intelligent than you will ever be. They get it. They give me hope and inspiration that there's still good people out there.

You are the one who doesn't get it.

Anyone who puts "liberal" or "conservative" or whatever political label in their discourse doesn't understand anything about the nature of the world. They, the establishment who have always been in charge and have always run things since the historical day one, love when the populace is fractured, divided, and hating each other (and not making them accountible.) They love it when people keep fighting each other. It's the oldest sure thing game in the world. It keeps everyone too busy fighting each other while they continue stealing and despoiling. They couldn't be happier.

More for them. At least for the moment.

He was saying get off your duff, get out there and fight (saying NO) in whatever way you can. Be a warrior, like the First Nations people are doing in the USA and around the globe. Do something constructive instead of doing nothing but tear each other apart.

The guy is an "activist" - really more an "alarmist" - who has no sound science background. Instead he relies on the warnings of others - and the observations of people who know nothing about common geologic processes.

If he did his homework, he would understand the difference between the natural processes of erosion and subsidence (which happen all the time to coastal and marine areas) and true sea level rise which takes centuries if not millenia.

It's like watching someone in the Middle Ages explain that the Bubonic Plague was sent as punishment for the sins of Mankind, or even a religious preacher in the 80s claiming AIDS is a punishment for too much liberal-thinking. Yeah - climate change is a plot of the oil companies to wreck the planet...meanwhile, Josh goes all over the globe courtesy of oil and gas that power the planes, trains, boats and cars he rides - not to mention all the CO2 his computer(s?) emit in the process of rendering his hi-definition footage.

What a clueless hypocrite!
