Too Hot Not to Handle- HBO Documentary
Too Hot Not to Handle
Heat waves. Melting glaciers. Rising sea levels. Catastrophic storms. Migrating viruses. Population displacement. Over the past 100 years, the mass consumption of fossil fuels, especially in America, has contributed to a dangerous warming of the earth that has adversely impacted the way we live. The cautionary documentary TOO HOT NOT TO HANDLE offers a guide to the effects of global warming in the United States. https://www.hbo.com/docs/programs/toohot/index.html I am picking this on DVD, it is no longer in the hbo scheduled line up. I'll post a review when I get it. |
Great section on hybrids, and biodiesel, even ethanol. Showed the 2005 marathon run in a prius.

Hmmm. I might want to see the Prius stuff...

I just went to see this the other night. It was free at the local downtown theatre, early in the evening, sponsored by the local university ecology club, who are sponsoring a free movie every week for the next month or so. The theater is providing the space free, too, as a public service. I thought the program (made for TV apparently) was okay, did a good job of showing some of the causes and effects of global warming, but I thought that they were way too optimistic about reducing/stopping/reversing global warming--sort of "somebody will find a way to make money doing it and everything will be okay'.
I would suggest seeing it if you can. |
