You just went full retard. Never go full retard.

Our world is so beautiful and many of us are destroying it every day. This is such a beautiful video!

[Cloud Strife]

The sun is slowly getting bigger. In about 4 billion years it will get so big, earth will be destroyed. Nothing for us to worry about, i'll be surprised if humans even exist in 4 billion years. Or maybe by that time we will have colonized to other planets and solar systems. Anyway, the planet is getting warmer because the sun is expanding. When all the ice on our earth melts, our sea levels will rise by 230 feet. This will probably happen within less than 12,000 years.

What do you mean the sun will draw closer to the earth?

[Cloud Strife]

The world destroys and rebuilds itself all the time, look at our planets history. The planet is always changing, the only difference now compared to 100 years ago or 1000 years ago, is we have the technology to notice it. It doesn't matter how eco friendly we become, the sun will still draw closer to the earth, the planet will still get warmer and warmer, sea levels will still rise and more natural disasters will occur. Sure we're not exactly helping the situation, but it doesn't matter.

It would be easier to film it than to produce it, I mean we have tons of satellites. it only needs an hd camera attached and let it spin.
