Until the excesses of Net Zero brought more widespread insight into the destructive foolishness of policies conceived in panic because of climate alarmism, there seemed no end in sight to the spread of this madness. Now there is more positive grounds for hope in the very accessible form of 'Climate - The Movie'.
You can see it here, hopefully safe from being banned by the likes of YouTube: https://seed132.bitchute.com/BOEebK0ezEwv/QyKpcVilVceu.mp4
I first saw it thanks to this post on the invaluable blog Not a Lot of People KnowThat , introduced there with this neat summary:
'This film exposes the climate alarm as an invented scare without any basis in science. It shows that mainstream studies and official data do not support the claim that we are witnessing an increase in extreme weather events – hurricanes, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires and all the rest. It emphatically counters the claim that current temperatures and levels of atmospheric CO2 are unusually and worryingly high. On the contrary, it is very clearly the case, as can be seen in all mainstream studies, that, compared to the last half billion years of earth’s history, both current temperatures and CO2 levels are extremely and unusually low. We are currently in an ice age. It also shows that there is no evidence that changing levels of CO2 (it has changed many times) has ever ‘driven’ climate change in the past.'
The movie is free to watch, and has been very well received on climate blogs such as WUWT, NetZeroWatch, and Jo Nova's. Jo writes this commentary on it:
'Martin Durkin’s work will be studied one day like Thucydides as a record of a bizarre moment in human history. It is so quintessentially British. I thought I’d seen it all in the climate debate, but this is so well done, perfect for a curious, matter-of-fact mind. It pulls you along, with timeless nostalgic footage in a classic English delivery, calmly unravelling mythology. It will resonate with people who remember cities, cars and great documentaries of long ago.
Because it’s not angry or activist it’s a gift you can send to friends who are science nerds, or history buffs, or who remember the sixties. Send it to people with teenagers who have no idea the curriculum hides a half a billion years of history. Send it to green friends, who have no idea a third of the food made in Africa rots before it can be eaten without fossil fuels and plastic to preserve and transport it.
Imagine the effect if this was shown at schools.'
She is on the ball there! This movie is easy to watch, featuring excellent scientists and an outstanding statistician, as well as highly informed observers of the climate alarm fiasco over these past decades. There is such a need for this to help reduce, or begin to remove, the awful anxieties about our future that waves of propaganda in the mass media, and in schools have planted in so many people's minds.
Here's hoping!!
