I got an email from Organizing For Action with the subject “Climate change is more than data”. I might be tempted to chalk this up to synchronicity with my previous post April Snow Highlights Global Climate Change.

Whatever, the cause, the email led me to some interesting places.

There was a suggestion to Go watch the trailer for “Years of Living Dangerously,” and share it with your friends today.

On YouTube it is Years of Living Dangerously Trailer #2.

It’s the biggest story of our time. Hollywood’s brightest stars and today’s most respected journalists explore the issues of climate change and bring you intimate accounts of triumph and tragedy. YEARS OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY takes you directly to the heart of the matter in this awe-inspiring and cinematic documentary series event from Executive Producers James Cameron, Jerry Weintraub and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The edited full episode is at Years of Living Dangerously Premiere Full Episode.

Hollywood celebrities and respected journalists span the globe to explore the issues of climate change and cover intimate stories of human triumph and tragedy. Watch new episodes Sundays at 10PM ET/PT, only on SHOWTIME.

The interleaving of different threads of the story is maddening, and I still think Thomas Friedman is an a-hole, but the show is still very much worth watching. “most respected journalists” indeed. They couldn’t have done worse to find a journalist with “more respect” except if they had picked someone from Faux Noise. Thomas Friedman has been glibly wrong about more things than anybody but perhaps Tim Russert.
