State of Fear: Hollywood the News Media and Global Warming

[lima33ful]

A great big boat load of crap.

[BadHabit202]

These people are such jokes. Crichton was the man.

[lebiew]

gLOBAL wARMING is not cause by Humans it's due to the sun. Because the Fed only funds scientist who say the Carbon is causing the warming she follows her leader. Carbon Tax sucks

Naomi! You rock!!!!!

Gene Rosow has read dozens of books (16:48), wow!

Climate change news

RP HAS 1M CLIMATE REFUGEES AND THE COUNT IS RISING Some 1 million victims of two storms that struck six months ago were still either in evacuation centers last month or being assisted in their homes. They are evidence of the governments inability over the long haul to deal with the caprice of climate change.

I wonder if you put her in a NKVD uniform, would her gibbersih be similar to what the Soviet propagandists lied to the farmers about lysenkosim.

She should be laughed off the stage

[ElCineHefe]

Now that we know these "experts" have been defrauding us for the greed of taxpayer grant money, doesn't the university have a responsibility to dismiss these crooked professors and have law enforcement deal with them like any other grifter?

Latest news from dailymail(dot)co(dot)uk/news

Prof. Phil Jones now admits there has been no statistically significant warming of the earths atmosphere since 1995 (15 years). Prof Jones also conceded the possibility that the world was warmer in medieval times than now suggesting global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon.

It well be difficult for liberals and other silly people to admit that they have been fooled but just remind them:

"Fool me once.. you won't fool me again."

:D

[digitalfilmvillage]

Michael Crichton is right. Will continue to be right. What a brilliant man!

[ThinkTank255]

Wikipedia article for Scientific opinion on climate change:

"With the release of the revised statement by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists in 2007, no remaining scientific body of national or international standing is known to reject the basic findings of human influence on recent climate change."

NO REMAINING SCIENTIFIC BODY. ZERO. ZILCH. NADA. CERO. Got it???

[10secs2lovetffl]

@ThinkTank255 According to who Wiki? Do you NOT realize I can go into that very same site and claim that humans have nothing to do with the hoax that is now referred to as Climate Change. Think about it for a moment.; in the 1970s it was Global Cooling. In the 1990s it was Global Warming and yet more currently it is now referred to as Climate Change. Maybe Al Gore should just court Mother Nature that way she won't have a Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall. It will be one temp. throughout the year...

[ROTTIWORLD]

remember the boy that cried wolf.

[TheSwedechris]

Great to hear that someone steps to show how cynical and shallow the deniers are . AGW is real it is happening and we are dealing with this kind of crap from people that are crooks IMO.

[4TIMESAYEAR]

Why shouldn't they make a movie based on "State of Fear"? They already made more than one about climate catastrophe.

[4TIMESAYEAR]

Michael Crichton was right; they keep us afraid so we'll be so preoccupied with the scare we can't act on whatever else they are doing - like bailing out the car industry, banks, etc. Ever notice how much spending they're doing while people are so preoccupied with the non-issue global warming? Every notice how many amendments are packed into the cap and tax bill?

[godscuttingyoudown]

you tube "esoteric agenda" by Ben Stewart if you want the truth

on dec of 2012 the galactic center of the milky way will line up with our sun

this event is causing our suns temp increase

polar ice caps on mars is melting, surface temp on other planets are rising, Jupiter's storms are increasing

colleges, Hollywood, NASA, government, military, feel that your ignorance is in their best interest.

[burnmetodeath]

Isn't the galactic center of the Milky Way ALWAYS lined up with our sun?

[tommystudmuffin]

There is no science in this video. If you are looking for science don't watch this video. This video is creepy. No Debate? uh oh that's not good. maybe they should find someone who disagrees with them and invite them to work with them. Without a debate of opposing viewpoints how can you know that what you think is correct. Where does co2 go in the air? Is there a debate about that? What about temperature measurements are they taken in the same way everywhere on earth are they accurate?

[rjlee818]

These liberal really believe that they sell is fact. This is sick. The academics are so blind!!! The global warming debate is not over. What a windbag!!!

[Merany1]

If anyone beleives that all the "scientists" at National Academy of Science, the IPCC or other scientific organizations are all in agreement the dangerous and catastophic AGW is a reality then you are being mislead.

The final stance of an organization is not decided by 2500 people but a tiny minority in the organization which does not reflect the overall ideas and opinions. Do you think that all the people in England beleived Saddam Hussein had WMD´s because the representive government did?

[Merany1]

I am no genius but I can point out enormous holes in what Naomi Oreskes says here. But people do not seem to know how to deconstuct and analyse information.

[busnutz01]

Leave it to the incredibly under-educated right wing morons to tell us once again they know more than Scientists do...

Michael Crichtons ( writer of Fiction )so-called Science facts have been reviewed by REAL scientists and found to be a total joke and a misuse of actual science.

[Deanosan75]

There were people who thought the earth was flat and didn't want to be told otherwise. There were also people who believed the earth was the center of the universe. 'Established science' always needs to be questioned. I wonder which people you would have been?

[galaktar]

Several points:

-Even if no one had reported the proof of Einstein's theory of relativity, it still wouldn't have changed the fact that he was right.

-Though all scientists agree that CO2 has an effect on the atmosphere, there IS a debate as to how much of an effect it has.

-There are still huge gaps in climate records. Cloud cover is one factor that has never been recorded with any kind of consistency.

-Naomi Oreskes is a great communicator, she knows exactly how to cherry pick information.

[ghayklan]

This is unbelievable, MC has written many books all fiction but this one gets this kinda acid. It's fiction and he's pointing out that the GW thing is not that simple and maybe there are some issues and we should question stuff and not just take everything the media says. Why is this ignoramus trying to denigrate a man many times more intelligent than himself

[galaktar]

Its weird that they criticize Michael Crichton for doing the same things that the church of global warming has been doing for decades.

-Using celebrity instead of science: check

-Using fear to shame people into accepting a point of view: check.

-Claiming that their opponents are just in it for the money: check.

[Baynt420]

tell me where to pause it. because i cant see any slit eyes

[relentlessburrito]

Yes...of course it's a terrible book...that's why thousands of copies sell...moron...

Oh by the way, you didn't even argue against the science of the book!

Why on earth would I listen to you? I can pull quotes out of context quite well on my own thank you very much.

[sunnydayone]

Naomi Oreskes is undoubtedly an extremely intelligent person,and a great communicator.

[konsuvo]

We have more important things to do like determining if solar forcing 9.8 or 10.

If we take away light bulbs (already done) and autos from the public and make them ride bicycles who are they to ask any questions? They will sit in the dark, walk to work and like it.

[konsuvo]

If we decree GW exists who is anyone to question us? We are scientists. We are smart. We are professors with Phds. Must we stoop to explain ourselves the lowly inferior pea brained public? If we say GW is caused by giraffes, then it is caused by giraffes. Must we make movies and cartoons to explain this to intellectually inferior journalist and ordinary people. Poppycock!

[sergejsh]

konsuvo - is it all your facts of non-existence of Global Warming?

[konsuvo]

The GW horror film has already been made. It's called "Inconvenient Truth." Has anyone heard of Al Gore, the wizard of GW? Al Gore killed science when he won the Nobel Prize. Or did Gore get the Nobel Prize for inventing the internet? Probably both. Sience is dead and Al Gore killed it.

The video "State of Fear," proves GW does not exist. It provides no evidence for GW because there is none.
