Must-See Global Warming TV
Fox News Online ^ | March 18, 2007 | Steven Milloy

As Al Gore’s movie “An Inconvenient Truth” becomes mandatory viewing for many U.S. school children and nears becoming the “official truth” about global warming, it comes as most welcome news that an absolutely gripping film rebuttal has made its international debut, much to the chagrin of true believers in man-made climate change.

Last week, the UK’s Channel 4 premiered a 75-minute film entitled, “The Great Global Warming Swindle.” Through interviews with prize-winning climate experts and others, this masterful documentary explains the origins of global warming alarmism; debunks claims of man-made global climate change; exposes the motivations of organizations, scientists and activists sounding the alarm; and explains why it’s been extremely difficult, if not downright dangerous, for climate scientists to question global warming orthodoxy publicly.

At about the same time, as Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore explains on-camera, environmentalism became more extreme. By the mid-1980s, environmental goals – e.g., clean air and clean water – had become so mainstream that activists had to adopt more extreme positions to remain anti-establishment.

Then when the Berlin Wall fell and the Cold War ended, many “peace-niks” and political activists moved over to environmental activism, bringing their “neo-Marxist” political philosophy with them. As Moore puts it, environmentalism became the “new guise for anti-capitalism.”

Global warming alarmism was thus borne from this combination of official British policy, environmentalism’s rejection of its own success and political opportunism by “unemployed” left-wing political activists.

The polar bears are doing just fine!

Looks like that one's got a bit of a sun tan.

I'm thinking that polar bear has an algae bloom on his coat or that's blood from some baby seals he just scarfed down

I watched it on the LittleGreenFootballs site. It was fascinating, and was presented in a very understandable way - not a lot of scientific terms, and those which were used were clearly explained.

Hi, nice article on Global warming. I'm responding to it now :)

I am Eric Chua, a Singaporean currently residing in Australia, I am also an author on this issue and you can find my articles on my website.

I have a proposal on solving Global Warming that is pending for publishing if it gets enough votes, you can read the proposal at the link below and please do vote if you like it.

http://www.changethis.com/proposals/918

It's about using the Secret of the Law of Attraction to gather people
to help solve the Global Warming Issue. However, this proposal can
only be published if it gets enough votes.

Please do help spread the word around. Thanks!

Regards,
Eric Chua

It woud be good if this were available on DVD. We could carry a couple with us in our purses or hand them out to the groupies at Dem campaign rallies, especially if they were only $1 or so

Download it on Bittorrent, make as many copies as you'd like.

I used CUCUSOFT to convert from AVI to DVD and passed it out to my coworkers.

How is it that the Secret Law of Attraction could defy the established scientific principle that opposites attract?
