Planet of the Humans (2020) is a documentary directed by Jeff Gibbs that scrutinizes the modern environmental movement and its embrace of renewable energy. Through archival footage and interviews with scientists and activists, it argues that wind, solar, and biofuel projects often rely on subsidies, fossil‑fuel infrastructure, and flawed assumptions about scalability. The film challenges the belief that green energy alone can rapidly solve climate problems, provoking debate about energy policy and political will.
