For the last 150 years, the burning of fossil fuels has revolutionized our world and powered our rapid industrial development. The unforeseen consequence was that carbon dioxide, absorbed by our oceans and pumped into our atmosphere is now causing temperature rise and catastrophic climate change. That is why we must transition to a zero emission planet. First in four films in the Green World Rising Series. Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, presented by Thom Hartmann and directed by Leila Conners, produced by Tree Media with the support of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.
