In two previous videos narrated by Leonard DiCaprio and available over at GreenWorldRising.org, we've seen the dangers that global warming and climate change present for our planet and the human race.

 

We've seen how there's a giant sleeping monster lurking underground in the form of trapped methane gas, and we've learned that, if we continue to do nothing to fight climate change, that methane could get released, causing even more problems for the only planet we can call home.

 

Finally, we've seen how putting a price on carbon could be one of the best ways to help fight climate change and save the future of not only our planet, but of the human race.

 

Now, the third video in the four-part series has been released, titled Green World Rising.

 

Green World Rising represents a call to save the human race from the devastating effects of global warming and climate change.

 

The video focuses heavily on some of the new solar, wind, and geothermal industries that are at the forefront of creating a greener world for all of us.

 

The threat of climate change is very real, but we have the solutions, knowledge, and ingenuity needed to help save our planet, and Green World Rising talks about how we can put those solutions and that knowledge into action right now.
