Three decades ago, the world was poised to stop global warming. Using exclusively archival material, “The White House Effect” tells the origin story of the climate crisis and how a political battle in the George H.W. Bush administration changed the course of history, documenting how a crucial opportunity to take real action on global warming was not just squandered but deliberately undermined.
