Planet of the Humans -- Biomass Fuel is Human Consumption of the Finite Earth From Above Ground

4. Yes. But even when they have scientific acumen, they refuse to change their minds as their premises

are shown to be flawed. Gore says, "I get it. I get the logic." No he doesn't, and he doesn't give a shit. He, along with McKibben and the rest of them -- they're the Big Sellout to capitalism. They've been shown their flawed premise and now don't know where to take us.

Right near the end of the documentary, it's noted that capitalism HAS captured the green movement, and governments' misguided funding along with all that. Governments being well-intentioned but misguided are our biggest problem right now.

Now we have to disabuse our governments that ANY new deal will have to stop biomass shipping to Europe so the smug Europeans can present themselves as somehow morally superior in being 'independent' of fossil fuel.
That's the big lie they should know better than to promote, but being capitalists themselves, this whole green "shift" is the profiteers' shell game everywhere.

What we've (as in ALL "we," bottom to top) got to do is... stop digging this energy hole, no matter what the energy is called. That right there is where our inability to even see our own human inertia is the problem, bottom to top.

I have to sit down and think through my convenient 'enabling' ways. I need to learn the true meaning of frugality. Which is living within nature's means, not my economic means.
