Leftist Billionaire Laurene Powell Jobs Backing Star-Studded Movie About Climate Change
A long list of Hollywood talent is joining billionaire left-wing activist Laurene Powell Jobs to star in a feature film about climate change.
The film appears to be a major effort from a slew of Hollywood stars, including Paul Rudd, Evan Peters, Amy Ryan, Paul Giamatti, John Turturro, Tatiana Maslany and Jason Clarke, for a film billed as a “darkly comedic drama” about global warming. It will be produced by Sony Pictures Classics with Tom McCarthy directing, Deadline reported.
The film, based on the book by Nathaniel Rich, Lose the Earthis supposedly a true story “set in a Florida resort town in 1980, when twenty experts gather for a weekend conference on a global issue that is beginning to gain traction: the effects of Co2 emissions on the climate. The group of scientists, activists and policymakers have a simple mandate from Congress: to write a statement on what to do. Easier said than done.”
The list of executive producers is long and includes Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Alex Gibney, Wendy Schmidt, Richard Perello and Robert Kessel, as well as Thomas Bidegan, Noé Debré, Nathaniel Rich, Billy James Parrott, Laurene Powell Jobs and Davis Guggenheim.

The book, published in 2019, claims that scientists were worried about climate change for decades before 1980, but politicians denied this information. The story revolves around the pitfalls and pitfalls of global warming denial, but some activists were ultimately unhappy with the book because it didn’t attack the fossil fuel industry strongly enough.
Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple founder and billionaire computer guru Steve Jobs and one of the richest women on the planet, has become a secret superpower behind a vast network of left-wing media outlets, organizations and politicians.
In 2021, Breitbart editor Alex Marlow investigated Jobs’ growing influence in his book, Breaking News: Exposing the Hidden Deals and Secret Corruptions of Established Mediawhich reveals the hidden links between the establishment media and the activist left.
Marlow discovered that Jobs wields immense power through his financial support of left-wing efforts through his Emerson Collective (EC), the philanthropic organization that acts as a “philanthropic and investing hybrid limited liability company.”
“EC operates primarily as a private company owned by Jobs’ personal trust. This protects it from IRS disclosure rules and allows it to engage more freely in political activities,” Marlow wrote.
“It’s underhanded and underhanded, but given how many media outlets are aligned with Jobs, whether financially or ideologically, it’s not surprising that little reporting has been done on these connections,” he added.
