Australias New Carbon Tax is for nothing it will kill our businesses make us poorer and do little for the environment considering our population 22million.Yet we have a fabian socialist primeminister locking arms with a marxist green party shoving this tax down our throat and don't worry I will also blame the liberal party for wanting to continue this UN agenda with their crazy direct action plan.Has the world gone nuts? Let's fix REAL environmental issues,Pollution,Armsdumping,n­uclear waste etc

@2wheels88

You have mentioned a couple of pertinent points:

1) You CAN be Green and still not believe in AGW - this conjoining of the debate has been done on purpose by Greenpeace, WWF..

2) The Australian Liberal Party is going softly, softly on its "denier" stance with "direct action" (whatever that's meant to be). Get some balls and fulfil your leadership mandate, Tony Abbot, and say the Emperor really has no clothes. Let there be real parliamentary debate?

3) Direct UN taxation - uh oh.

You make a very good job at denying global warming. I believe there is no reason for me to deny it as it affects Norway to a very large degree and the evidences are clear. I don't think you got a perspective of how large areas of ice that are melting. You state that the temperature is cooling the last 10 years while other sources + ice melting shows it increased the last 15 years.

@bvssvni

Many thanks for your Norwegian perspective.

Ture, the Arctic has been melting since 1800 (pre-industrialisation). However, the Anatartic, which contains 90% of the Earth's ice, is expanding. Temperature treads can vary by region, of course. I used the IPCC's (Global Warming champions) dataset in the movie (the Hadley Centre's HADCRUT3v). Even they state that global temperature has been stable / decreased in the last decade. Slightly embarrassing, as their models missed this.

Wow, just wow. Thank you so much for this informative and unbiased documentry. I wonder what the next emergency will be, we've had global cooling, holes in the ozone layer, global warming, on and on. We should of froze by 2000 or burnt to death by 2005 or be drowned by 2010 depending on which man made catastrophy you believe in.

Thanks again, spread the word.

i am so sorry i did not see this sooner,there is so much out there that propagates this 'scam' of global warming,and so much that belies that 'belief' ,that is simply not science,i am proudly a skeptic,not a scientist, but a wary street guy,who knows a scam when when he see's one,great stuff! ,well documented,and honestly put across,the'science' is far from settled,nor is the 'politics'...keep up the 'good fight' my friend!

[2wheels88]

I liked this series and it was very fair,it seems to me that the people have been torn apart by far left and far right views that have crept into the environmental debate and things seem to conveniently get left out of certain reports or they're over inflated claims.Perhaps if we had Scientific institutes that were not government funded but came out of the taxes of the people then scientists would want to to right by the people rather than by a government.Just a thought independent sciece WOW!!!

@coturnix19 many of modern-day mammalian clades apperead first during boiling climate of eocene... and mammalian biodiversity has been going down now for some time (no, we are not to blame, it started long before us). It takes probably millions to tens of millions of years at best to develop warm-bloodedness, which takes it to a heretic idea that high temps experinced during last 100 ma were probably good for life.

[coturnix19]

there is another thing about global warming and past climates... Warm-blooded animals have their 'inside' temperatures at about 38-39C. Incidentally, it is also about the top temperatures in the world experienced on average in sea shore areas... coincidence? Or did life evolved specifically to feel fine at temperatures we have today in tropics? (presumably)cold-blooded dinosaures were phased out long before real climate cooling of mid-eocene started.

@glennimmortal It's precisely the subject. The hot chick's in bikini's on the beach. Saying warming is good?? gimme a break. If you put a frog in boiling water. It will jump out. If you put the frog in warm water and slowly bring it to a boil it will stay in and die. Do you see the correlation here??

[glennimmortal]

@TheBlueConch Pollution is a completely different subject and one that is real.

@TheBlueConch i meant MAD (doh)
