Jon's documentaries are moving and believable. He has a knack for finding the right people with a story to tell.
The stories are about an environment under threat from the monied elite and their oil and gas industries. Then there are the facilitators like Obama who talk about climate disaster but keep their activism to catchy phrases and hype. Both Hillary and Obama were in love with fracked gas, the source of much of their campaign funds. They were both frauds, and both managed to damage the system enough to elect a madman as president.
I say all this because Jon really doesn't. He doesn't look for villains in the destruction of the planet. He shows how it is happening, but doesn't personalize. He moves his viewers to become more active, but not to become hateful.
It is almost impossible to predict if any tactic can stop the crazy elite and their drive to destroy the world for profit. In years to come, will vigilantes on a dying planet seek out and murder the CEOs of Big Oil? I hope someone is left to make the documentary.
