La condizione del paneta e i rischi che corre a causa dei gas serra è la scomoda verità che Al Gore si è impegnato a diffondere di persona attraverso un tour che si è esteso ai quattro angoli della terra avviato dopo aver perso (momentaneamente) la corsa alla Casa Bianca. Conscio di andare incontro allo scetticismo delle persone ma forte delle sue ricerche nel campo e di vent'anni di esperienza (già nel 1992 aveva pubblicato il libro Earth in the Balance: Ecology and the Human Spirit sul quale si basa la sua attuale "predicazione") Gore espone una serie di dati scientifici inattaccabili, tabulati, previsioni sul nostro prossimo futuro e risposte alla domanda su come affrontare il riscaldamento globale del pianeta.
Che gli oceani abbiano bisogno di “aiuto” è ormai noto. Ma tanti ignorano le conseguenze negative che potremmo subire per colpa dell’inquinamento dei mari. È quello che ha pensato Yann Arthus-Bertrand, fotoreporter e presidente della GoodPlanet Foundation, quando ha deciso di realizzare Planet Ocean, il documentario che racconta i problemi che affliggono le acque del pianeta. Divenuto celebre per i suoi scatti aerei, che ritraggono dall’alto favelas, città fantasma e cimiteri di antenne satellitari, Arthus-Bertrand nelle sue opere mette in luce l’immensità della Terra e delle creazioni umane e le contraddizioni che questa interazione può generare. La GoodPlanet Foundation, in collaborazione con Omega, ha girato il pianeta per mettere insieme panorami ad alta quota e incursioni subacquee ravvicinate. E mentre le immagini rivelano un universo di dettagli in alta definizione, la storia del “Pianeta Oceano” si dipana tra osservazioni attente e l’ombra di un futuro minacciato dall’uomo.

Tobacco, climate change, pesticides,... Never has scientific knowledge seemed so vast, detailed and shared. And yet it appears to be increasingly challenged. It is no longer surprising to see private corporations put strategies in place to confuse the public debate and paralyze political decision-making. Overwhelmed by excess of information, how can we, as citizens, sort out fact from fiction? One by one, this film dismantles the workings of this clever manoeuvre that aims to turn science against itself. Thanks to declassified archives, graphic animations and testimonies from experts, lobbyists and politicians, this investigation plunges us into the science of doubt. Along with a team of experts (philosophers, economists, cognitive scientists, political men, or even agnotologists), we explore concrete examples of doubt making and try to understand the whole process and the issues behind it.
