film

I saw a screening of it locally.

First thoughts:

  • It's good for what it is but I have a couple of caveats.
  • Felt very UK focused. That's probably the intention, but at least a mention of the climate effects on countries beyond Europe and why not the focus in this film would have been good.
  • Not a single mention of capitalism as the problem. Just generally talk of too much CO2 without much mention of the ideology that has driven that.
  • It felt quite technocratic. Technological and market solutions rather than radical political change.
  • Still, the idea of a National Emergency Briefing seems good.
  • And I like the whole screen it locally and get the community together aspect of it.
