The Great Global Warming Swindle
Google Video ^ | Wag TV (UK)

Posted on 03/10/2007 5:21:34 PM PST by AnalogReigns

A very (VERY) convincing video documentary that the idea of man-made global warming is total bunk. The contributors to the documentary have impressive well-know scientific credentials, (including the co-founder of Greenpeace, and the head of the Meteorology Dept. at MIT) and follow the IDEOLOGY (that's what is is, not science) of Environmental Change from the 1970s to the present. It's a one hour and 15 minute video, but if you are at all interested in the topic, very well worth your time. Builds a convincing scientific case that our current warming trend is Solar related, not due to greenhouse gases.

Probably the most moving part is in the end, when it shows the price to be paid, primarily by survival-economy persons in the developing world, for the world-wide dogma of man-made global warming. This documentary clearly underlines that the world-wide almost religous devotion to the ideology of global warming has serious moral consequences.

Sorry, my mistake. The video file, all 589 megs of it, was on my hard drive after all.

>>lOUTSTANDING PROGRAM.

Urge EVERYONE to set aside the 75 minutes it takes to watch it.
<<

I'm about 40 minutes into - I sure hope it gets better.

So far its pretty flimsy. I was hoping they actually adress causation and rebut the major science groups instead of just picking the one associated with the U.N.


BTW, If you use Firefox you can add the video downloader plugin to let you download videos from various sites whether they want you to or not.

> How can you save the entire video?

You can, but it is not free. I downloaded with this product.

http://www.wmrecorder.com/

which also works with other internet streams, live or not. I use it to capture talk radio, cspan video, etc.

You-Tube, etc comes over as a "flash video" file "*.flv" which requires a separate, but free, viewer:

> I'd love to be able to put it on DVD for friends

So would I. I have not had much luck converting flv files to more standard formats such as mpeg for dvds. It should be possible, but I have yet to have acceptable results.

And maybe, just maybe, the ever pontificating, imperious and condescending Algore has thoughts of riding into the White House as the saviour of mankind.

I'd say that's a little more than just a maybe. I think Algore figures he has stumbled onto something he can parlay into a novel campaign strategy. I would, if I were him.

Awesome, awesome, awesome, program!!!!

Just finished watching it. It's a VERY well put together program that explains global warming (tip: the sun did it) and reveals how the wack-jobs want to allow millions to die in third world countries by not allowing them power. Many, many, good points. Even tells an "inconvenient truth" about how Algore left out facts to hide the truth.

Take a look here:
http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2006/04/download-google-videos-as-avi-files.html

I was able to download it. I haven't tried playing it but they explain what player you need and where to download it. It's free.

It's 571 Meg, by the way. Took 15 minutes on my FIOS.

Outstanding Video! In one place, it presents all the little snippets of information I've been reading separately over the years that entirely contradict anthropogenic GW.

We need a video like this on some of the other myths held religiously by the left:

Government welfare is a good thing,
Illegal aliens are good for us,
Big government is good,
AIDS research is an essential government expenditure
Homosexuality is normal.
Life long interest payments are good because you can deduct them,
National health care will work,
The FairTax won't work,
ad infinitum....

I listened to the whole film, and it is SXCELLENT. It not only covers the science, but the funding influences, the politics, the biased reporting, and the impact of the GW hysteria on the underdeveloped parts of the world.

On the illegal aliens, have you seen the on-line lecture/presentation where the speaker uses gumballs to show the number and increase in illegal aliens and the effect on our counbtry??

It is very good and effective on that subject.

"Thank you for reporting or I would have missed it. The best GW documentary I have ever seen!"

For some strange reason, there are some people here who seem to NOT want good information to get out. They are more concerned with dupe posts than spreading the word. Go figure.

To say that Al Gore and company is a bunch of liars is a gross understatement. They are Communists out to "fix" imaginary problems and screw us all in the process.

Props to Professor Michaels, whose office in Clark Hall (Brown Science & Engineering Library) is a few minutes walk from this computer lab (Small Hall) at the University of Virginia.

As a geologist, all I can say is "Outstanding!". They quietly and without histrionics debunk the Carbon Dioxide myth and explain the mechanisms of and reasons for the apparent correlation.

They then proceed to expose the entire self-serving grant machine, the socialist influences, and reasons for media collaboration in the whole scheme.

Well worth watching.

Voices of reason speaking in the wilderness.
