@biden_worldnewsBenedict Cumberbatch is pushing back against the idea that we should keep fostering extractive industries alongside populism and nationalism. He calls what we're seeing now in this last grab for resources a final attempt to exploit them, noting we don't want those nasty things. Even with that harsh reality, he holds the view that humanity has the capacity to prevent climate catastrophe. It's an advocacy stance for planetary protection through rejecting specific economic and political trends.
