If that link doesn't work, try going to Powerline News:

And finding the video for the "Great Global Warming Swindle."

[Holicheese]

What do scientists know, I would rather listen to a guy that flunked out of divinty school!

[KATIE-O]

I took the time to watch this video a few days ago and it is excellent. Real scientists use REAL scientific data, going back thousands of years. Al Gore is an idiot and the Hollyweird crowd has egg on their smarmy faces.

[hophead]

I watched this, well half of it so far. Seems VERY well done. I want to see a debate with some of the scientists in it and Al and friends. But it will never happen. As my dad always said, "wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up first."

The entire scam is how they intend to make money on the basis of scientific theory. They intend to compute ones carbon impact and charge you a fee that will go to a company that will supposedly offset your carbon impact with green remedies. Get ready to have your wallets cleaned out with higher prices and litigation costs.

If this scheme ever takes off, it will be disaster for the U.S. economy.

PING for later

[G8 Diplomat]

Hey Al Gore...is the truth that your film was a piece of bogus, unscientific crap inconvenient for you?

[diogenes ghost]

BBC Documentary? Not exactly the fare one would expect from them. Next thing ya know PBS will be showing it, followed by CNN. Who woulda thunk?

[Yo-Yo]

The Great Global Warming Swindle was produced by Channel 4, not by the BBC.

FYI..later viewing

[Libloather]

...dissenting scientists speak out against the "man-made global warming crisis" orthodoxy.

*GASP* Does that mean Algore is wrong (again) when he declares the debate over?

[GodGunsGuts]

The video was not produced by the BBC. It was produced by their competition, Ch. 4 in London. The BBC wouldn't put out a hard-hitting expose like that in a million years.

[driftless2]

Just finished watching the whole thing. This ought to be required viewing in all classrooms. Lots of powerful arguments against the prevailing theory. Especially interesting were the arguments that showed temperature rises led rises in CO2 and not the reverse.

[N. Theknow]

The most important part of the Global Warming scam is that it is Man-Made.

Cause only Man can pay taxes. Or buy carbon offsets.

Al Capone, Jim and Tammy Faye and Ponzi were amateurs compared to Big Al Gorebull.

[the scotsman]

Please change the first line to read 'channel 4' ,NOT BBC.....it is still incorrect.

The Great Global Warming Swindle...IS A MUST WATCH!!!!

Bump this documentary to the TOP!

This 73 minute documentary debunks Algore's theory and hysteria within the first 20-30 minutes but fully crushes it by the end. Key findings:

The incidence of CO2 in the atmosphere LAGS temperature rise by about 800 years.

Oceans produce the most CO2, especially when the weather is warming (due to sun activity). And the oceans absorb CO2 when temperatures are cooling.

Temperatures were cooling from 1940 to around 1975 -- during the HEIGHT of Industrialization and the Post-World War 2 boom.

Sun-spot activity is almost perfectly correlated with temperature variation. The most logical explanation for climate change is: Sun activity produces varying amoungs of cosmic rays; these affect the oceans and produce more clouds; more clouds help trap heat and cause global warming.

Another great correlation: there are now tens of thousands of jobs that are dependent upon Global Warming. Unfortunately, some of the blame can be assigned to Margaret Thatcher who, in the 1970's, wanted to move the UK away from dependence on oil (Mid-East terrorism and threats) and coal (coal miners striking). A Swede noted that man-made CO2 would result in global warming -- Thatcher grasped at that theory and gave it a budget for research. That was the start.

Another correlation: funding for research into global warming in the US was around $180MM per year before 1988; then it started getting more and more funding and went to over $2 billion from 1990 on. This correlation also tracks the hippies, peaceniks and ecology-freaks: when Communism fell, they needed a new political cause to fight capitalism, globalization, and America -- thus was born Global Warming.

Finally, a great consequence: third world countries will continue to languish in poverty because the UN and others want to deny them the help to develop cheap power and industrialize their countries. The Eco-Freaks like to romanticize living the simple life -- unfortunately, the life-expectancy of these poor countries is pitifully low.

Great piece. Here's another link:
