Burning

Burning

It is, as the closing fade to black pre-credits point out; "In 2019 the Amazon rainforest wildfires burned 2.2M acres. In 2020 California wildfires burned 4.4M acres. The fires of The Australian Black Summer burned 59M acres." It's moments like these, and the lack of concern shown on a global scale let alone at home that'll burn a wildfire through parliament at our next elections. Yes this film is political and media bias, resource reliance and mismanagement, mismanagement of the future. The two headed political beast will continue to fight itself regardless of this documentary. Hopefully though it can ignite Australia on the world stage enough that we face the condemnation we deserve, and forced action. Assuming anyone here/out there cares to watch it.

For me the climate change deniers ... I don't get them. Well I do "get" the politicians who probably are being paid by certain industrial people to still hold on to the "past". Now I can't prove that, so I reckon I have to say allegedly. You make of this what you want ... I would like to believe that most would come to the same conclusion as myself. The documentary isn't just saying or showing us the wildfires ... very devastating ones at that. No it shows the connection between the dry land and the fires and climate change. Now you may go and doubt that - right? But ask yourself one important question: What do you lose if you go Green energy? I'm serious about this and I will elaborate. So people want to switch to renewable energy. This will create a lot of new jobs. Yes some workers will have to rearrange, but that will happen sooner or later anyway. So you are just doing what is inevitable. You are just very likely saving the planet for future generations to come with it. Because if the climate change "thing" is wrong, what is the worst thing that happens with the Green Energy switch? You created a new branch of jobs that will happen anyway - once the energy sources used nowadays will go extinct. But what if they are right? Which is the more logical conclusion, supported by many scientists ... we will have a clear conscious and even live better ... no matter how long that is (years wise). A shame that the PM of Australia seems to be in the pocket of some very powerful people - allegedly. Or he is plain refusing to see what is happening right in front of him. Something that even Americans chimed in on ... and they (mostly Republicans) have no idea whatsoever what they are or were talking about. So let's hope the activists finally come through ... and that the PM will either change his tune ... or will be replaced by someone who is aware of his surroundings ... there is no need for another fire like this ...

Great movie, well researched and brought to live. Eye opening for me, and I hope for many others. The personal stories form individuals in this movie really bring the problems we are facing to live.

I found it a scary yet interesting documentary, the scientists interviewed were reliable sources and I found it excellent overall. Definitely one to watch. Those poor animals burnt in the fire and poor people who lost everything due to the climate change denying politicians in govt. (Scott Morrison). I hope this makes people think about the way they vote.

This hit home for me as I remember the skies turning red and ash falling from the sky on my parents property in southern NSW, on New Years Eve. We gathered around the tv to watch the news as country burned and it was surreal and devastating. This film is not only informative but it also tells a story of how things got to where they are today based on past actions. It gives hope for a brighter future if we have the right people steering the ship. Thanks for an excellent film on climate change.

Had the potential to be a great documentary about the lives of people affected by the fires in 2019, and how we could have better prepared by reducing the fuel load, and how such prescribed burning measures have been inhibited, especially by pressure from the Greens. This documentary ended up just being more anthropogenic climate change propaganda. If you're a fan of Greta, you'll no doubt love it.

Burning, When you see the name you would think that this documentary is about fires in Australia and the people that had to deal with them. But you would be wrong this documentary is a political theamed movie about climate change. They say the words climate change way to often.. Yes we get it and I am a strong suporter of greener energy but they made it the main point of the documentary which should focus more on the fires.

I am not claiming climate change is a HOAX. However, this documentary seems somewhat politically motivated. I rather had a documentary with more facts than complaints against a certain administration.

Although some of the comments refer to the fact that the documentary is highly politicised if it is and if it intends to convince people that there has to be a change, indeed it must be. We do not realise it, but even from the anthropocentric point of view, let's do something to change this since if it has not affected us until now, it will affect us in the future and not so far away. Bravo for this documentary and bravo for the intention to change minds, tainted by dirty money and cheap politics.
