Oscar-nominated actor Benedict Cumberbatch has plunged into environmental politics with a new feature-length documentary that asks – rather than moving to Mars, how can we continue to live on Earth? It sets out to investigate how the nature we’re destroying could instead help prevent environmental disaster by humans engaging... show more

Absolutely love hearing Benedict Cumberbatch speaking the language of @TheGreenParty! Very much looking forward his new documentary! Here's hoping Benedict & the incredible #documentary team will join @ZackPolanski & The Greens in Holborn & St. Pancras on their campaign trail!!

Exactly. We’ll never live on Mars or the moon..!! Pointless when there are robots to use. AI will take us there. Not humans. Dont be so deluded..!!!

Now his children are older ask him if he going to have a pet illegal gimmigrant come live with him, I hear they're the must have sleb fashion accessory .. or is he still in the "Let them all in but keep them the fuck away from me and mine" brigade?

I wonder whether an Oscar winner with such a beautiful British name can withstand the pressure of the cultural establishment — especially if his views don’t align with what is currently considered the “acceptable” position. 😏

Oh no! Now I see the Sheeranisation of climate-change activism 🙆🏼‍♀️

ELON: WE WANT TO CREATE A FLOURISHING CIVILIZATION ON MARS "This is what we want Mars to look like with Starships coming and going, an incredible, beautiful Mars city. And a flourishing civilization on Mars. Ultimately, we can transform Mars into an Earth-like planet with terraforming. It just needs to be warmed up, really. And then, it could be ultimately an Earth-like planet. And we could bring the life from Earth. We could extend life from Earth to Mars. And really, it has to be humans, actually. It's not going to be the dolphins. But we can bring all the creatures with us. And we can ensure that life on Earth continues on Mars even after Earth becomes unlivable in the distant future."

#Varanasi massive sets have been kept under tight security to prevent leaks. When asked how the production plans to keep the set secret, Rajamouli said: “It doesn’t work very well. Constantly guarding the sets and actors becomes a massive security exercise. We’d rather put our energy into creative work than security, but we have to live with it.”

I spoke with Steven Guilbeault at a Nature Canada fireside chat, on how Canada can build the social consensus necessary to achieve difficult but vital national objectives. We are in a time of deep economic anxiety. It is easy for the political agenda to be seized by demagogues who trade on our fears, rather than appeal to our hopes. How do we recall ourselves to the better angels of our natures? How can parliamentarians and citizen organisations lead public opinion, not just be led by it? We spoke during the most recent Nature on the Hill event in Ottawa.

VIDEO | Greater Noida: Indian philosopher and author Acharya Prashant shares his thoughts on the Chhath festival, describing it as a celebration of nature and environmental harmony. He emphasised that while humans are meant to worship and coexist with nature, today they are causing its destruction through pollution and environmental imbalance. Referring to the pollution in rivers and the growing disturbance in the ecosystem, Acharya Prashant urged people to restore respect for nature, saying that true devotion lies in protecting the environment, not exploiting it. #ChhathPuja (Full video available on PTI Videos –

Elon Musk: We want to make it possible for anyone interested to move to Mars and help build a new civilization. “We want to ultimately make it so that anyone who wants to move to Mars and help build a new civilization can do so. Anyone out there. How cool would that be? And even if you don't want to do it, maybe you have a son or daughter who wants to do that or a friend who wants to do it. And I think it would be the best adventure that one could possibly do is to go and help build a new civilization on a new planet.” From: SpaceX Update, May 29, 2025

ELON: IT’S COMPLETELY FALSE TO SAY HUMANS ARE A LOAD THE EARTH CAN’T SUSTAIN “Something, which I think, generally starts out with good intentions, but ultimately paves the road to hell, is environmentalism in the extreme. It starts to view humans as bad, humans as a load on the Earth that the Earth can't sustain. This is completely false. At least for some of these things, one can actually apply physics or one can analyze scientifically, to say how many humans Earth can Earth sustain without what most people would consider to be significant environmental damage? If you actually do the numbers, I think it's potentially 10X the population we have today. How much land area do we need to grow food? How much would that encroach on natural habitats? What's the actual food-growing potential? There's not a shortage of surface area and energy to grow food. There's plenty of water because Earth is mostly water. It's 70% water by surface area. Desalination is actually very inexpensive. So, there's really not a shortage of water.” Source: Interview with Jordan Peterson, July 2024

This is one of the more interesting cases I’ve heard for why we should put AI data centers in space. Yes, it would benefit a few billionaires, but it could also lessen the environmental toll on Earth. And we’re going to need to cut AI's carbon footprint in as many ways as we can. Space architect Ariel Ekblaw and I went deep on the opportunities—and many challenges—of building AI infrastructure in orbit. Watch our conversation here: Produced by Atlantic Re:think, The Atlantic's creative marketing studio, in collaboration with PwC.

Everything Trudeau has said about the Jasper wildfire has been a lie. The fire in Jasper could have been prevented but instead, they focused on pandering to global elites like Greta Thunberg. Check out my mini-documentary on how Jasper was burned by politics.
