Default he Great Global Warming Swindle - C4

Just thought I would give you a heads up for an program that gives an alternative view on the recent Global Warming debate..

On: Channel 4 (04)
Date: Thursday 8th March 2007 (starting in 6 days)
Time: 21:00 to 22:35 (1 hour and 35 minutes long)

Polemical film challenging the consensus that man-made CO2 is heating up the earth. Featuring leading academics, the film questions the science behind the accepted reasons for global warming and argues other explanations for climate change are not being properly aired.
(Watch Online, Subtitles)

new contraversial evidence won't make a blind bit of difference, the government has already amde its mind up that we are the root of all evil no matter what evidence is brought to light, everybody with a brain in their head knows GW is a natural phenomenon and is the planet going through a natural cycle, everybody except our government that is.

Where humans responsible for the last ice age or the planet coming out of an ice age by using fossil fuels and CFC fridge freezers, or maybe the cavemen all ran round in monster V8s that they have managed to keep secret from archeolagists for all these years.

Wurzel, WHY purposely distort/humour/ignore the message that the global warming lobby are trying to put accross? Surely the whole issue usn't that trite to you?


I'll watch this with interest. I'm sure it's bound to be a balanced and unbiased report.

I don't think it is down to the Government thinking that it is all our fault. It really is a ploy to screw as much extra tax out of us as possible. If Global Warming is of such significance as far as they are concerned, why are they sanctioning the passage of double the numbers of travellers through our airports I wonder? Or is that so that they can collect twice the amount of green duty from those passengers!

I, for one, will be watching with interest.

I do subscibe to the idea that no matter WHAT is said, proved, disproved etc tonite, it won't make one blind bit of difference to this, or any future government.

Ecology is now the new God, and is used by goverment to keep us all in line, much as God was in the last millenia.

Excellent program - only touched briefly on the fact that CO2 was many times higher in the past, but liked the heavyweight people rolled out to dispute the "unanimous" opinion.

Favourite part - just before a break the rally where a speaker was saying "its our right and duty to take over Shell, break it up and send its mangers for re-education". Classic loony leftie Stalinist fruitcake
