Climate Change Dispatch 2/10/2020

BBC Studios is making a TV show with 17-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg.

The project was announced at the BBC Showcase trade show on Monday.

No network, release date or the number of episodes have yet been set.

Here is the description for the series, which comes from the studio’s science unit.

“The series will follow Greta’s international crusade, which takes her to the front line of climate change in some of the most extraordinary places on earth, as she explores what actions could be taken to limit climate change and the damage it causes.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I recall seeing a blurb about one the worst tv series ever aired Category 7: The End of the World (CBS)
.  Same subject as Greta is selling.

Maybe BBC is trying to take the title from CBS

Sounds like Jersey Shore is going to have some serious competition for the bottom of the barrel.

I think they have a bunch of channels. So, this isn't a big deal.

‘We’re NOT Paying!’ BBC Gives Greta Thunberg Her Own Series And Viewers Are Furious

The BBC announced Monday that they’re making a “documentary series” about the life of teenaged climate activist Greta Thunberg, and British taxpayers, who fund the BBC, are definitely not happy that their tax dollars are going to pay for “climate propaganda.”

BBC Studios announced the project at the BBC Showcase trade show, according to The Wrap. Details of the show are still scarce — it’s not clear yet what the format is, how many episode there will be, or when it will premiere — but the BBC did note that the show will come from the network’s “science unit.”

“The series will follow Greta’s international crusade, which takes her to the front line of climate change in some of the most extraordinary places on earth, as she explores what actions could be taken to limit climate change and the damage it causes,” the BBC said in a statement released to reporters.

For starters, they could save the poor, ailing, planet the carbon footprint of flying this little princess (and whatever film crew are involved) all over the world for location shots, if they are really worried that there is a problem.

Just have them all take the electric bus.... :whistle:

It'll be a mini-series.
