The Great Global Warming Swindle (2007)

Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Best suited for critical thinkers, i.e., those with open minds, seekers of truth and not selling out to make money by cheating the system.Saw this documentary about 4 years ago at a time when I believed man caused CO2 was causing earth's average temperature to rise. But I was so ill-informed at that time that I chose to believe what the main stream news medias were pushing! After nearly four years of closely investigating all aspect of this issue, I returned today to watch this documentary a 2nd time.Now is comes across as extremely obvious that we are being scammed. Dr. Judith Curry warned us a couple of years ago that this is a prime example of an "ERROR CASCADE"..... one in which all medias feed off each other's erroneous information further deceiving, not only the public but even themselves....This has happened in history before several times and sometimes with horrific results. The worst case seems to be the 3rd Reich taking control of the German mainstream news media in the 1930's influencing the entire German population and much of the 1st World to believe horrible lies that led to the death of millions.

I've always said there is no such thing as global warming! Do you think that after millions of years this planet earth is has never seen hot weather? I remember back in the 1950s the weather was twice as hot as it's been in the 2000s and I mean hot not just 100%, My brother and I used to to peal the skin off our backs it one big sheet, and that was just one day on the beach in the sun. This weather is just a cycle the world goes through the same as the ice age the stone age etc,etc, You don't hear people in Arizona or Las Vegas make comments on global warming, in fact they laugh at the suggestion...So we get summers in the 80% and maybe if we are lucky 100%, Christ almighty they have 130% every day in Las Vegas!! and that is normal for them. What would they say if it was 140%? Global Warming? I think not...Global warming is just an excuse for Goverments and certain people to make money out of stupid people like us... There are scientists who will tell you, the is no such thing as Global warming, It is just a progression that the earth goes through and has gone through for million of years, so write to you goverments and tell them you do not like to be treated like imbeciles before it goes the whole 9 yards and becomes acceptable. Who invented the term Global warming? Not you, not I, and not the scientists who say it's not happening...But your politicians who screw you for everything they can get out of you!! Stand up and be counted show them your not a fool or an idiot...

We always hear "save the environment" and see a lot of things promoting that message. this covers the other half of the story, or so I thought, it is why I watched it anyways. this while after the movie I was able to contradict, if they did not contradict themselves in the movie, almost everything that was said, or find flaws. without even talking about the information, the movie directing itself does have some minor flaws, for example we see the title about five time at the beginning. the thing is that not only was I able to contradict most of their information, which is formed on a scientific basis, but I don't even study science, I study theatre! My advice would be maybe to watch it if you are curious, but if you are looking for some ACTUAL research information, save you're self some time and skip this feature.

Well, this film has changed my life. Once seeing it i spent a year in gathering information about climate change. To be more precise i wanted to find the same information, but from different source so that it could sound more plausible. And i did. I have found undisputed evidence that everything we are told about climate is wrong and they do all this for manipulating the world. The best thesis why they do all this is formulated in Zeitgeist - The Movie. I have even made a project about climate change in my school. I was considered as a freak by most of my classmates :D But i was satisfied. I have changed my point of view to the world. Now i read philosophy. I stopped watching TV. I am a new person thank to The Great Global Warming Swindle. My rating 10/10
