Question "The Great Global Warming Swindle"

This film, first aired by the BBC last March, is still praised or damned in today's news. It runs 75 minutes.

Did the fellows who sold tulip bulbs also challenge skepticism from fellow Hollanders? Probably.

Is global warming the sort of hypothesis that bends its story to fit whatever data emerge? Certainly. Fresh ice in Greenland is consistent with global warming; so is the systematic decline in hurricanes over the past decades.

Contradiction: The BBC, often called "Auntie" by the Brits, is usually left of center in its work. Further, Gore will make a billion and, while either a hero or nuts, now has the best time of his life.

"The Great Global Warming Swindle is a controversial documentary film that argues against the scientific consensus that human activity is the main cause of global warming. The film, made by British television producer Martin Durkin showcases scientists, economists, politicians, writers, and others who are sceptical of the scientific consensus on anthropogenic global warming. The programme's publicity materials assert that man-made global warming is "a lie" and "the biggest scam of modern times."
