OIL INTO FIRE – Misguided Climate Policies and the Global Crisis

Why climate protection measures are not only useless, but even dangerous.

World climate conferences in oil states, LNG terminals off German coasts, a green government with no funds for public transport but subsidies for company cars? This is the bitter reality: Current events are worsening global warming. Instead of protecting the climate, we are fueling the fire.

Renowned journalist Kathrin Hartmann reveals what climate policy means in the context of perpetual economic growth. She visits the "sacrifice zones" in the southern U.S., where so-called "clean" liquefied natural gas is shipped to Europe, and Zambia, where people are displaced to make way for the billion-dollar business of dubious CO₂ certificates. The shift from CO₂ reduction to dangerous pseudo-solutions like 'carbon management' and underground CO₂ storage seems inevitable.
