Do you know how to boil a frog?

We were recommended to watch How to boil a frog and after watching the trailer I definitely want to, but oh no our library does not have the film. Can anybody help? One of my favourite websites, the Energy Bulletin wrote about Jon and the film too. Alone watching the trailer one sentence struck me that I think should be plastered on every billboard in every country of this planet. Jon says climate change is a symptom. Human beings are destroying themselves. It's not our planet that is at risk, our very own species is at risk. The planet will make it somehow and move on to the next stage whatever that is but human beings might disappear just like dinosaurs did, only that we are shovelling our own grave and well, kill a lot of other species, animals and plants alike, in the process of wiping ourselves out. I know why I doubt so often human intelligence.

The person who recommended that film to us wants to learn how to use a gun, to shoot and hunt. I first shook my head, rolled my eyes, and then thought, he's getting prepared for when there's no more food on supermarket shelves.  I joked to my hubby he'll have regularly his whole family over for dinner then. I mean who cares if we know how to use a computer once that thing stops working because cheap electricity is gone and we are fighting for mere survival by trying to have something to eat and drink. Who's going to sign up for the next outdoor survival course now? Me, me, me ...
