Jahre der Verheerung

Just don't listen to the "One Star Votes" their arguments are so flawed i don't even know where to start.

All the episodes so far had nothing to do with the participants being rich or anything else.

The arguments in here are nothing new , though an eye opener they should be for all religious people on how, and here comes the contradictory part for them, believing in science can be possibly being religious, one thing i really like about the show.

The sheer science and blatant evidence you see, has nothing to do with what biased comments you get of "The One Star Votes", so just don't even bother reading them.

It is a really good show and the means of transport to getting the message across in here, are in this case Celebrities, nothing wrong with that if you ask me.

Just watch it some episodes will baffle you on what mindless RAPE is committed on nature just for money.

A must-see series, but rather obviously aimed at a mass audience, comfortable in their well-insulated houses. Nevertheless, must-see! Arguments presented for and against the global-warming theory are trivial at best. Perhaps the most interesting part is wondering whether the journalists and "scientists" portrayed realize that the hypocrisy of their luxurious and obviously energy-intensive life-styles shown here is the very reason that ordinary people do not take them seriously.

There is an excellent interview with President Obama which has totally countered my previous negative impression of him.

To call this mess propaganda would be to misuse the word. There's presenting facts selectively in an effort to further an agenda, and then there's ignoring fact, logic, and reason altogether and making a contention based entirely on the premise of "because I said so". "Years of Living Dangerously" is decidedly in the latter category. It is a convoluted hodgepodge of fallacies and misleading information peddled in such a way as to make Dan Rather blush.

Should one ignore the blatant hypocrisy of a bunch of well to do actors jetting around the world, while burning more jet fuel and creating more "greenhouse" gasses than the average person does in their lifetime, the show is clearly written by people who are entirely convinced that the viewing public are comprised of brainless amoeba. This outright contempt for the intelligence of the audience speaks volumes to the audience the show has received, which is approximately 400% less than a COPS rerun on Spike at four in the morning.

As someone who already understands the basics of climate change, I find little to learn from this show. It's basically celebrities asking very naive questions, softballs to get an easily impactful line. Cheadle, Ford, and Friedman are boring and humorless. The camera pans to closeups of handshakes and guns, trying a little too hard to create an atmosphere of foreboding. The typical Gore-bashing argument of flying in private jets etc. does seem especially on display here, although somebody has to fly around doing some journalism if messages are to be spread. The actual content of the show is educational. If you don't know anything about climate change and respect actors, you can get something out of this.

This series of films explore many different stories around climate change in order to illuminate some of what is happening locally in our world.

Unfortunately there are not more documentaries on TV of this quality and prescience. It's extremely well written, produced and researched.

Why do some people rate this so badly? I can only guess that they are either extremely closed minded to the world we live in or they are lying selfishly for their own interests.

If you are skeptical then watch it and make your own mind up, otherwise you remain ignorant of the most important issue humanity has ever faced.
