The Climate Change Movie That Doesn't Care if You Believe in Climate Change February 12, 2011; excerpt ...

former CIA director who has a "Bin Laden hates this car" bumper sticker on his plug-in hybrid. There's Bernie Karl, the Alaskan geothermal entrepreneur who twice voted for Bush and plainly denies man-made climate change, but says, "that doesn't make a difference. I want clean water and I want clean air, and that's so simple." ... There's a one-armed Texan cotton farmer-turned-wind farmer. There's the minister, the former Army Colonel, two electrical utility executives. ... "Someone once said that the storyteller runs society," Byck said. "So far the folks who don't want to believe that climate change is real have done a better job. I wanted to change that." He later said, "There are a lot of people who can't stand listening to Al Gore."

You have still provided no reason for inclusion. Cast lists in "true" documentaries are tangential to the purpose, at best. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 11:18, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Appearances in the film?

"Starring" is wrong. "Cast" is wrong. "Appearing" may not be wrong, but doesn't seem appropriate. If you were to list only those people who were involved in and supported the film, it might be a reasonable list, although I still don't have a good name for it. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 00:23, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And what is the reasoning against 'Appearing"? 97.87.29.188 (talk) 00:28, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If you are in a crowd filmed in a documentary, you are appearing in it. Named appearances?
I still don't see why it should be listed; it's not analogous to the cast of a non-documentary film, where, in theory, the complete list of people paid to be in the film might be relevant, and reasonable selections from that list would still be relevant. That list, (properly called "paid appearances"), might be the analogous list to a cast list, but it's not available. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 14:57, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
