It was challenging to figure out where to put this. It’s also environment, and it turns sharply political for Act III.
If you’re already familiar with renewables, there’s not a lot to learn here but the comparisons with fossil fuels and ethanol. Given that I’ve been on solar since 2023, I appreciated what he was saying to the uninitiated.
Get yourself some Act II if you plan on making it all the way through … it’s an hour and a half.
ITT: deliberately unhelpful comments.
You know why text summaries are good? If I read a thesis statement and go “yup, I agree with the thesis and know enough about the major points raised to skip this” I save NINETY FUCKING MINUTES of my life. Alternatively, if I see something in the summary that piques my interest, I can watch the video to get more detail.
Text can’t capture the emotion and vulnerability that Alec put on the line here. A summary betrays the time and effort he put into making the video. He’s even got carefully crafted subtitles in case you watch it silently.
When I read a summary of a film before I go to watch it, I don’t assume that I have absorbed the intensity of an actor’s performance. I have been disappointed too many times by excessively long YouTube videos to spent an hour and a half without knowing what the general content of the video is.
naw. watch the video.
