Spaceship Earth - about Biosphere 2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceship_Earth_(film)
Spaceship Earth is a 2020 American documentary film directed by Matt Wolf about the 1991 experiment that saw eight individuals spend two years quarantined inside of a self-engineered replica of Earth's ecosystem, dubbed Biosphere 2. 

Oddly... On April 1, 1994 a severe dispute within the management team led to the ousting of the on-site management by federal marshals serving a restraining order, and financier Ed Bass hired Steve Bannon, [Yes, THAT Steve Bannon... The White House Chief Strategist for Donald Trump] then-manager of the Bannon & Co. investment banking team from Beverly Hills, California, to run Space Biospheres Ventures.[65] Some biospherians and staff were concerned about Bannon, who had previously investigated cost overruns at the site. Two former Biosphere 2 crew members flew back to Arizona to protest the hire and broke into the compound to warn current crew members that Bannon and the new management would jeopardize their safety.[66]

(A Tale of Non-Euclidean and Symbolically Authentic Mountaineering Adventures) - Daumal's symbolic mountain represents a way to truth that "cannot not exist," and his classic allegory of man's search for himself embraces the certainty that one can know and conquer one's own reality.

Great Movie: "An Inconvenient Truth" by Al Gore. explains Global Warming

This movie calls for action to save life as we know it on planet Earth. As we saw last year, Global Warming caused Three Hurricanes in the USA, Tornados and VAST wildfires in California.

Soon the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and the East Coast will be uninhabitable as it will get blasted by hurricanes every year... No matter how many times Trump' EPA declares that Global Warming is a hoax, the damage is real. Trump is lying when he says "Clean Coal".

It seems like the only place in the USA that will be safe to live in will be the Coast of Northern California, Oregon and Washington State.

We can save ourselves by simply using less electricity generated by coal, driving fewer miles or buying a high mileage car.

Watch the trailer at link above...

This Summer Seattle had temperatures above 100 Degrees Fahrenheit. Only about 1/3 of the homes owned air conditioners... None of the trees in the forests have air conditioners... We also saw a green algae bloom in Miami Florida... This is creepy... Go Solar and Wind. Stop burning OIL, coal and gasoline... Electric cars are the future.

A decade after AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH brought climate change into the heart of popular culture, comes the riveting and rousing follow-up that shows just how close we are to a real energy revolution. Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight traveling around the world training an army of climate champions and influencing international climate policy. Cameras follow him behind the scenes - in moments both private and public, funny and poignant -- as he pursues the inspirational idea that while the stakes have never been higher, the perils of climate change can be overcome with human ingenuity and passion.
