A new Michael Moore-produced documentary that takes aim at the supposed hypocrisy of the green movement is “dangerous, misleading and destructive” and should be removed from public viewing, according to an assortment of climate scientists and environmental campaigners. The film, Planet of the Humans, was released on the eve of Earth Day last week by its producer, Michael Moore, the baseball cap-wearing documentarian known for Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine. Describing itself as a “full-frontal assault on our sacred cows”, the film argues that electric cars and solar energy are unreliable and rely upon fossil fuels to function. It

I haven't/won't watch it. Some of MM's points must have hit some of the sacred cows.

The climate change crowd is hilarious! I'm starting to enjoy watching them get so ridiculous! It's great comic relief!

AOC must have gotten totally mad. Seems the fat ugly dude in the old ball cap has touched a nerve.

Jeez, Michael, we've only been throwing those facts in the Greenie's teeth for what... 20 or 30 years, now?
What took you so long?
And what facts have you twisted and warped on your trek to these conclusions? Someone with a gut like yours would be among the first to feel the bite of starvation if we went back to hunter-gatherer days.

Funny to see these clowns attack their own. But don't forget that You-Tube just today took down the video of two doctors who were on Laura last night. Their crime? Saying that this lockdown is counter-productive to getting rid of this C-19. It is terrifying how You-Tube and Facebook are controlling what people can see and here. And isn't it Google that owns You-Tube? These monopolies on speech and thouhg must be broken up.

So let me figure this out. MM is ticked (substitute word) off that AG is a LOT richer than him and AOC is ticked (substitute word) off at both of them because they're ALL a pack of idiots.

Dissent from the dogma will not be tolerated and heretics will be censored and shunned. Only because burning at the stake is still illegal. And in the case of MM, would release a ton of carbon.
One would have to plant an entire forest to compensate for those emissions.

When he agrees with you he's a hero, when he disagrees....he's dangerous and his free speech must be suppressed.
The left are totalitarian liars.....pretty much all of them.

If these people would censor Moore then if they ever got to power, what would they do?

The word "experts" is what should be in parentheses.

The primary danger is to their cash flow, of course.

{{{gawping bug eyed}}} Michael Moore made a film that attacks the sacred cows of the Left? For Real?? THE Michael Moore, the one who hates Trump and Trump voters? {{running for the fainting couch while clutching pearls}}
Do not take that film down, whatever you do. Don't cave to the tantrums. Let the climate believers prove he is wrong here. Let us finally see some HONEST debate, not something filled with platitudes that mean nothing.

Yes, MM does a fairly decent job of exposing the environmental movement, electric cars, renewable energy...
But
SPOILER ALERT
the main culprit is overpopuation and capitaism
But the Millionaire Malthusian Moore won't off himself

Michael should be burned at the steak for this blasphemy. But the fire would be so great it would increase global temperature by several degrees.

The climate change movement is a rigid secular religion. Someone who challenges its dogma is a heretic. Even Michael Moore.

Yes, Michael is saying that "green" energy is a farce but not that global warming is. He just says the proposed solutions will not work.
His new solution, get rid of half the people. Seems there is a movie about that. Thanos snaps his fingers and half of the life forms in the universe are wiped out. Someone should get MM his own Infinity Gauntlet.
You think the Left can't get any worse? They are trying REALLY hard.

The greaseball is obviously running out of money . He never recovered from his divorce wherein his wife took him to the proverbial cleaners. One of my customers was involved in the construction of his multimillion dollar 'second home' in northern Michigan and has many cringeworthy stories of him and his wife from a personal perspective. What a mess !

After seeing the unconscionable fabrication that characterized his earlier "documentary" work, I swore I'd never watch more Moore. So although it's encouraging to hear that he's put together work to expose the fraudulent claims of 'green' tech, I'm still inclined not to watch.
Planet of Humans isn't meant to represent a shift in his world view (away from 'progressive' globalism, to individual liberty and limited government), it's just to keep feeding his insatiable appetite for portraying his adversaries as frauds in a way that totally distracts audiences away from his own indulgence in fallacy and fraud.
My instinct tells me it's most prudent just to stay away from him and any work of his.
