Wow. Thanks everyone. We environmentalists, we citizens, are losing the climate catastrophe battle. Wall Street and Corporate America have co-opted parts our green movement. We are out of time. This current virus should be a wake-up call. The next assault on humans will be far worse. Can we just admit that our strategy for fighting the destruction of our natural world has failed and that we need new direction, new leadership. A new NEW green deal. And no more collaborating with billionaires, Koch and fossil fuel-funded foundations, and politicians who’ve succeed at nothing. 350 parts per million? We’re way beyond that limit which we were told a decade ago was “the point of no return.” We are now at 415ppm! This is madness! I refuse to remain silent. I make movies that end up forcing me to tell you the uncomfortable truths that occasionally some of our “liberal” leaders would rather keep from us, especially when they involve people we know and respect. We are overwhelmed with everything right now. Yet the fact that over 4 million of you have watched our film when your main job currently is staying alive through the summer — well, this confirms my belief that people not only can handle the truth, but are relieved someone - filmmaker Jeff Gibbs, in this case - has finally said what most of us had been thinking for some time: That our beloved environmental movement, which has diligently worked hard for years to stop the planet’s demise is, sadly, failing — in part because of wrong choices that have been made. This brings us no joy to say this. Time to usher in a new way! Let’s have that discussion! Share this movie with friends and family - it’s free on YouTube! Let’s resolve to fight like we’ve never fought before.
