Powerful
Absolutely the worst movie.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Blistering performances.
Very good points, loved it.If you attack the consensus, you're called a denier. The inference to being akin to a holocaust denier is not so subtle. Normally polite people resort to name calling, there is a collective hysteria on this issue.
I saw the documentary just today. It's just a rather sleek docu, created by people who deny man-made climate change and from companies that are funded by oil companies and politicians. Almost every scientific claim they make is long and in depth overwritten by many (and I am talking hundreds) of other scientists and peer reviewed articles. ABout some of the previous reviews: no climate change is not a very recent matter, it's been around for decades, the Club of Rome already warned for such possible problems and since the eighties scientists are researching and writing about it. The 97 percent claims still stands. There are hundreds universities, high schools, research organizations, non-profit organizations, etc who have thousands of scientists working on the climate matter. All of the papers written in the last decade or so have been reviewed and nearly 97 % of those papers all claim that humans are responsible for the current change in climate. The change from the title 'global warming' to 'climate change' is simple and logic: there is not only a rise in temperature, but also change in precipitation, changes in wind (velocity, direction,...) and so on. Many more impacts then only a change in temperature. Climate change is not about 'believe' but about science and facts, and those all say: yes there is a man made climate change, and is here and now!
I found it enlightening that so many scientists are questioning "global warming". After all we keep hearing that 97% of scientists agree that humans cause climate change, aka global warming. This movie actually shows how that 97% was acquired. Turns out that the sample size was only 67 people. When I was in college, my statistics class would never had allowed me to use such a small sample size. Not only was this 97% made up of so very few, but most were not even climate scientists. Humm, the news on TV never mentions this. As that matter goes the press fails to report the news on global warming accurately. One question they never did get around to was why doesn't the media report the real facts? I do recommend watching it if for no other reason than to get the other side of the story. When it comes out on DVD, I will have to buy it so that I can determine if all of the facts stated were correct.
Remember the Global Warming Swindle from 2007? That turned out to be about as accurate as an episode of Ancient Aliens.Distorted partial facts, statistics out of context, sound bites edited just right and some ideologically motivated people trying to tell a barely coherent story.Climate Hustle is a lot like that, but with more conspiracies. Big Science is out to take away your right to drive a gas-powered car and Big Government will soon only let you crawl around in a golf cart!On top of that, the pinkos want to take control of the planet by installing a world government. This is just one of the first baby steps! Wake up sheeple!If you're into this sort of thing, knock yourself out and watch it, the risk of eye rolls and face palms not withstanding. (END OF RANT)
