Not so (the) Independent...spreading the same sensationalist crap as any other rag. Again: they're not whales and they're not killers. Homo sapiens are the killers. They're orcas.

For example, I would weigh myself:
- 40% curious creator
- 25% governance advocate
- 20% commercial profiteer
- 15% alarmist

SOLAR VORTEX!!! WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!
J/K, apparently this happens every 11 years. The only people who should be excited about it are solar scientists, since usually the Earth doesn't have a good angle on this phenomenon.

*Environmental documentary Planet of the Humans argues green energy won't save us from 'total human apocalypse'*
"Leading toward 'total human apocalypse' and green energy is 'not going to save us, it's actually going to kill us faster'"
"Films about environmental issues have long been a staple of the documentary form, a genre that in recent years alone has brought us Before the Flood, Chasing Ice, Chasing Coral and, of course, An Inconvenient Truth. But those documentaries arguably pale in importance to Planet of the Humans, which just held its world premiere at the Traverse City Film Festival.
The film directed by Jeff Gibbs, produced by Gibbs and Ozzie Zehner and executive produced by Michael Moore, makes the deeply disturbing case that unless we reverse course, the human species faces ruin. …"
