[TOMT][Movie] Clip of a Climatologist or Meteorologist talking to someone in an interview about how it's too late to fix global warming. Interviewer keeps insisting that there could be something we can do but interviewee keeps saying that we're at the point of no return.
I don't recall thinking that the movie was actually a documentary or otherwise real. It was a sort of black comedy or something like that, I forgot what it was all about. I only really saw a clip of what I mentioned earlier when someone posted it on reddit, so I don't know what movie it's from or anything like that.
Thanks in advance!
