Ice on Fire (2019)

In the throes of an environmental crisis, the documentary Ice on Fire asks a poignant question - can we reverse climate change? This cinematic journey delves into the myriad ways humanity can curb carbon emissions and more vitally, draw down existing CO2 from the atmosphere, a key step towards cooling our warming globe. The urgency is palpable, with the world having crossed the dreaded 400 parts per million CO2 threshold, instigating climate volatility worldwide. The film doesn't shy away from the grim realities - record-breaking heatwaves, intensifying storms, enduring droughts, vanishing arctic ice, and an Antarctic melting at an alarming, unforeseen pace. Yet, amidst the gloom, hope is found in the passionate visionaries and dedicated scientists of all generations visited during the film. They offer a beacon of hope that we can pivot from the precipice. But as we grapple with the complexities of carbon drawdown, an unexpected adversary emerges - methane, a potent greenhouse gas escaping from the Arctic's icy grip and seeping into the atmosphere. The documentary poses a critical choice: "Is it game over? Or is it game on?" It affirms that we have within our grasp the capability and innovative solutions not merely to mitigate, reduce, or stabilize, but to reverse global warming. The film's narrative underscores the urgency of the situation while highlighting the potential for humanity to rewrite the ending of this climatic tale.
