Rezensionen
For centuries, powerful forces of greed have tried to hide the truth, but that doesn't change reality - the earth is round and climate change is very real. The Madhouse Effect brilliantly dissects the climate denial industry, empowering all of us to see the facts and take action before it's too late. Leonardo DiCaprio
