    Fundamental question of all free thinkers: Why do you hold this belief?

    If you are a truth seeker and a free thinker, this review is for you.

    Do not blindly trust what you see on TV. Don't trust news sources that say the world will end in 10 years. Don't trust people on TV, even if they show you graphs. Always check their sources.

    Many of the graphs shown in this film have been edited so that they no longer reflect the truth. In one graph, they pretend that the graph ends "now", when it really ends in 1950. In other graphs, the data were outright manipulated.

    If you watched the film and believed that their graphs are accurate, please take the time to look at their sources and try to find the graphs there. Or check out the video by Potholer54 that describes several of their lies in detail. And of course, check Potholer54's sources.

    I gave this film 3 stars because while lying is immoral, the producers are at least good at it.

    Such an important documentary

    I know you all have lots of demands for your time but this really is an excellent film all about the Green scam.

    I'm always looking for concise and precise documentaries on subjects that I can say to people 'if you watch one documentary on a subject, then watch this' and this one is that.

    It uses amazing data to showcase the lunacy and then has a brace of bona fide scientific experts dismantling the clearly fake agenda behind this tiresome charade.

    It's very well produced and really hits all of the key points from the vested interests to the politics to the corruption.

    Please for the love of this planet and your fredoms, give this a watch and provide your mind with an alternative opinion to consider.

    silence the critics

    It's like being back in the dark ages, if you don't stick to the narrative you will be burned at the stake. The arguments presented are compelling and only those invested in the CO2 theory would ignore them, either because of profit or their entire carrier is built on the theory. The documentary meticulously details VERIFIABLE data that contradicts the CO2 narrative.

    You can look around in your local environment and see how biased reporting is. In my local experience there is massive media hype when a "green" initiative is implemented but then later when it proves to have been a monumental mistake - there is no reporting on that. Apply that to the global stage.

    Explains The Science and how The Politics has subverted The Science.

    So far the ratings are either 1/10 or 10/10, clearly this is a marmite subject! Most viewers will either be 'sceptics' and have their ideas confirmed or 'believers' in the Climate Crisis and probably won't watch to the end.

    A lot of excellent interviews with credible people, clearly sensible and not the swivel-eyed-loons we're told to expect.

    In the last few minutes it touches on causes: the rise of the new class of anti-capitalist left-leaning folk (the swamp, the elite), who use their positions in society to silence descent against the message.

    I could watch on loop the clip of working people, trying to get to work, pulling an Extinction Rebellion protestor off the roof of a London Underground train.

    Superb exposition of the truth about the climate

    Climate The Movie does as it says, presents the Cold Truth. It gives a good overview of how climate change came to dominate current political discourse. It features a raft of prominent scientists, physicists, climatologists and Patrick Moore (the founder of Greenpeace) all who dared to dispute the prevailing consensus that the science is settled. The documentary meticulously details the 4 other more reliable measurements of temperature change (rural surface stations, ocean gauges, satellite readings and atmospheric balloons) to show that all the IPCC reports and models are mostly based on sites that have been engulfed over time by urbanization and hence subject to distortions in the record by the urban heat island effect. The 4 methods confirm only a slight temperature rise and this is reported alongside the long term historical records going back centuries and then tree ring and ice core testing going back millennia to show that we've been warmer before when there was no industrial output to blame.

    Finally many current media myths and obsessions were debunked including no increase in hurricanes and storms, hotter daily temps in the 1930's than recently and significantly fewer modern forest fires than the '20' and '30s.

    The way prominent scientists, environmentalists, politicians and the media exaggerate and distort the truth to manipulate the masses into accepting all of the constraints on lifestyle and escalating costs of enforcing net zero is dramatically laid out. This documentary is an important contribution to the debate of climate science that is in reality far from settled.
