The film, made by British television producer Martin Durkin, presents scientists, economists, politicians, writers, and others who dispute the scientific consensus regarding anthropogenic global warming.

The film's basic premise is that the current scientific opinion on the anthropogenic causes of global warming has numerous scientific flaws, and that vested monetary interests in the scientific establishment and the media discourage the public and the scientific community from acknowledging or even debating this. The film asserts that the publicised scientific consensus is the product of a "global warming activist industry" driven by a desire for research funding. Other culprits, according to the film, are Western environmentalists promoting expensive solar and wind power over cheap fossil fuels in Africa, resulting in African countries being held back from industrialising.

The film won best documentary at the 2007 Io Isabella International Film Week.

A number of academics, environmentalists, think-tank consultants and writers are interviewed in the film in support of its various assertions. They include the Canadian environmentalist Patrick Moore, former member of Greenpeace but for the past 21 years a critic of the organisation; Richard Lindzen, professor of meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Patrick Michaels, Research Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia; Nigel Calder, editor of New Scientist from 1962 to 1966; John Christy, professor and director of the Earth System Science Center at University of Alabama; Paul Reiter of the Pasteur Institute; former British Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson; and Piers Corbyn, a British weather forecaster.

Carl Wunsch, professor of oceanography at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was also interviewed but has since said that he strongly disagrees with the film's conclusions and the way his interview material was used.

  • @305dadecounty305 IPCC is a total fraud. The UN members set up the global warming reports as a scam to soak the US taxpayer for carbon taxes paid to other member countries. We should kick the UN out of NYC and send those assholes who hate the USA while running around our country with diplomatic go home. We pay the operating expenses so they and plot and sceme against us....go figure.

  • it's just an excuse for another tax

  • @xinecallaw Good point.

  • You pay the BBC to brain wash you, lying parasites.

  • Its really annoying when they keep, repeating the same lie,over and over again, this is great.

  • You want to live on a tropical paradise. Make more CO2.

  • Is it really too much to ask for these morons to please distinguish the difference between 'Global Warming' vs 'Manmade Global Warming'. FACT #1 is this, our planet is undergoing climate change! FACT #2 manmade 'pollution' is the primary factor is 100% apeshit stupid, NOTHING, I mean NOTHING can be compared to the impact that the Sun has on our climate or how the Earths Magnetic fields (which deflect the majority of radiation/energy from reaching us) damn it there is more but too drunk to think

  • Not a scientist but pretend I am one(and maybe one of the 2500 authorities telling us all this.) First things first-anyone remember acid rain? If there is a time if I thought global warming was real-nuke bombs being set off would seem the only real culprot to me-to study and see how they affect the atmosphere-I believe in climate change and sure enough will be glad when spring arrives. If global warming is true-I vote for TV and movies to go first since they use a lot of energy.

  • the earth's surface is 500,000,000 square kilometers and people think that 7 billion creatures, that if were to come together, might take up a few square kilometers, can have total control over the environment of something millions their size? im sorry but that just seems like a joke

  • This video is easily refutable. /watch?v=OTqGVOXPAv8 is one of many MANY videos put together by people doing it for NON PROFIT.

  • I always knew it

    man-made global warming is a way to press developing country.

    I live in Indonesia, where tree-hugger freaks always yelling 'turn your power plants off, it's killing the planet'
