Reply to comment by Surur in Rooftop Solar Is Becoming More Accessible to People with Lower Incomes, But Not Fast Enough - Inside Climate News by darth_nadoma
Why don't you guys or women watch a certain documentary called"Planet Of The Humans" Directed by Jeff Gibbs. Then give me your opinion on alternative renewable energy sources like solar panels and wind turbines. It's actually a really good documentary too you might even enjoy it.

Probably because it's full of bad information:
> "In their new YouTube documentary “Planet of the Humans,” director Jeff Gibbs and producer Michael Moore argue for splitting the two sides. Their misleading, outdated, and scientifically sophomoric dismissal of renewable energy is perhaps the most dangerous form of climate denial, eroding support for renewable energy as a critical climate solution."
The article goes into substantial and specific detail, but suffice it to say that the documentary you keep citing is not a good source of information about this topic, and I would strongly recommend you check what it's told you against other sources. If you're up for reading somewhat detailed articles, Carbon Brief is generally a reliable source which cites its sources well.
If you're not up for reading detailed information about the topic that's fine, but recognize that your knowledge of the topic will necessarily be rather limited, and -- if it's mostly from a widely-criticized movie -- will often be outright wrong.

Obviously, I am not going to waste my time (1h39m), so a short written precis may be more appropriate.
