Something I've uncovered is that the producer of the above documentary has a shady past . Many of those scientist in the documentary are well known for being on the oil lobby pay roll , They get millions of dollars in their pocket if they can produce a convincing refutation of global warming.
Some of the "facts" in the documentary were believed to be true a few years ago but have since been proven false. I am referring specifically to tropospheric temperatures measured by satellites and weather balloons. There were errors in the interpretation of the instruments and these have now been corrected. The documentary appears to be recent but this discovery was not acknowledged.
The thing is who is the one bullshitting? You can see the ideological bias all the way through the film: environmentalist without a cause; environmentalists who want to go back to medieval times; business trying to produce good things for people and getting blamed for all the world's ills; Thatcher saving Britain from the socialists and so on.
