This video clearly defines the issues and lies involved, and the science is not politics beyond the obvious one of giving a free ride to the likes of China and India.

What this video actually shows is the mistakes of GGWS - not anything new.

Furthermore, it is made by an environmental activist, computer artist and illustrator. That is not science - it’s quite simply political activism brought to a multimedia format - just like An Inconvenient Truth and GGWS.

If anyone believes any one of those mockumentaries, they really need their head examined.


We have had this discussion before. I have heard morons make statements to the effect that “people breath out CO2”; so how can it be bad?

Because CO2 isn’t bad - your body is 18.5% carbon-based. You breathe out CO2. CO2 is partly responsible for keeping this planet warm through the greenhouse equation. CO2 is the reason oxygen exists through photosynthesis conversion in plants.

In short, you’d better start thanking whatever deity you do or do not believe in for the existence of CO2.


I have heard morons say that the earth has been warmer in the past, so how can 6 billion people make a difference?

There have been dozens of historically proven climate - the one that comes to mind is a 15C shift in Greenland’s climate 12,000 years ago in the space of a decade.

What does it tell you when 6 billion people can’t get to within even a thirtieth of the change in 100 years that a natural process did in 10 years?


I have heard people say God will decide how warm the place should be, so what we do is irrelevant.

And you wonder when you liken all sceptics to religious god-botherers and Holocaust-deniers and the like, why we respond in kind and call you religious Al-Gore loving acolytes.
