Climate Change: Motivated by Fear?
Today on the Science Revolution - a Democratic candidate in Colorado is calling attention to the real threat of climate change with a campaign ad that features a chilling post-apocalyptic vision. Should we be using FEAR to wake up the world to what is happening? Thom leads a fascinating discussion."Stop what you're doing and watch this—all the way through." That was the reaction the from youth-led climate group Sunrise Movement to candidate Andrew Romanoff's campaign ad. It depicts the not so distant future with a family in shelter from the ravages of the climate crisis. It's dark and not hopeful. Will this motivate people to care about the future of our planet?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
