This is a very intelligent look at our planet and the forces (some natural and some man made) that have and are driving the climate.
While critics tend to be very harsh with Mr. Burke, I have yet to hear or read one of them show me that their expertise in historical matters approaches that of Mr. Burke.
The only other comment on this board is grossly unfair. I wonder if the poster has house insurance? If he does, he is showing his blatant hypocrisy. Why should the planet be denied the same protections that he feels his house is entitled to? The previous poster has offered no credentials, no concrete scientific statements of FACT to back up his claims, only wild speculation and partisan hackery.
One of the last things Burke says in this "documentary from the future" is that mankind avoided the problem by taking steps to avoid it. He says (I'm paraphrasing here) "It was a close run thing...but it DIDN'T HAVE TO BE".
Watch this for yourself and see what YOU think. Do some research and try and find a flaw in Burke's logic. While all his proposed scenarios might not be feasable, at least he's THINKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM, which is MUCH MORE than all his ostrich critics AREN'T!
