The race in question is the one we must take to avoid future climate catastrophe. Subtitled Secrets and Solutions, The Race is On paints a stark portrait of the current state of global warming, but offers notes of hopeful idealism as it outlines the power we still possess to save our planet.

Produced in the UK, the film offers insights from top climate scientists who describe our current dilemma and provide evidence-based speculations on what might occur if we do nothing in response.

We see the traces of climate change all around us in the form of heat waves, droughts, severe weather events and rising sea levels. The scientists in the film concur that if meaningful action is not taken, these events will occur far more frequently, and will inevitably place millions of our global citizens at risk while decimating some of the most populated cities around the world. The scientists also speak to scale of the changes required to avoid these harsh predictions, and the amount of time we have to implement them for the betterment of mankind.

According to the film, one of the keys to survival lies in the transformation of how we produce and consume energy. The UK is currently working to embrace this industrial and social revolution. We are told that the popularity of solar panels has increased ten-fold over the past decades, and that wind power currently satisfies about 15% of the country's energy demands. If efforts like these are embraced across the globe, dangerous emissions will be greatly reduced and could retrieve us from the brink of an apocalyptic scenario.

The opportunities are there, but the will must follow. The film explores the need of governments and world economies to adopt and incentivize these innovations, but it also goes much further. Some of the film's most insightful moments come when the narrative shifts to our own personal living habits - how we eat, shop and inhabit the world around us - and how we should demand that our economy models regard us as more than mere consumers.

The Race is On engages its audience on both a scientific and a deeply personal level.

i love smearing poo poo all over my walls.

What is a paler? I genuinely have no idea. Is it on Urban Dictionary? Clueless here. lol Is it somebody who uses a melee weapon? Am I wrong here? I really don't know. I don't have an answer here. I can't reach emotional satisfaction until I find an answer. This will be grating endlessly. lol

History is revisionism and society is brutality. The way things are gets decided by the guy with the biggest stick, and the way things are also covers the way things were.

There's the narrative, and then there's history

Sometimes, though, the conquerers leave behind written history of what they did and why that later generations can look at and find endlessly amusing, which doesn't paint the conquerers in quite the wonderful light they thought it did.

Did you know that the English once invaded and murdered the Danish because the Danish bathed and combed their hair regularly? Apparently this was an affront to English women's purity since they found the Danes extremely attractive, unlike their matted smelly countrymen.

>Did you know that the English once invaded and murdered the Danish
Who haven't they invaded. The English have formed the largest empire in the history of the planet. Do you think all their other conquests were justified?

From a tiny island attacked from every side to a global powerhouse kicking everyone else. I swear the reason they gave it all back is so they can invade again in the future.

But usually the reason for invading wasn't because the people were more attractive than them for reasons that they could readily emulate.

Take a bath once a week and comb our hair once a day or invade for minimal or negative gain?

Sometimes, when you need a reason, any reason will do.

It's not like those well groomed folks put up a fight:
"We died, but at least we died looking sexy."

>>15306
But the only source for the fight being a massacre are the same filthy ungroomed people. Do you think if they invaded and lost that they'd admit it?

This is the same English who slaughtered the Irish unmercifully until the Irish got fed up and did the same back until they gave Ireland back to them.

All they had to do was treat the people with respect and they'd have had a great thing, but no, instead they go out of their way to piss off everyone until even Scotland wants to secede.

>But the only source for the fight being a massacre are the same filthy ungroomed people. Do you think if they invaded and lost that they'd admit it?
Well if we're going to say it wasn't a massacre we could also say it wasn't because of personal grooming.

>All they had to do was treat the people with respect and they'd have had a great thing,
Invade, conquer and be respectful to your new subjects... what kind of fairytale is this.
