Climate Hustle (2016)

Too much of everything

Sick Product of a Sick System

How sad is this?

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Any true scientist will tell you that in science the book is never closed on any issue, and that includes the THEORY of man-made global warming. Politicians, dictators and their flunkies in The Establishment Press are the ones who close books. In today's political climate (no pun intended) the pro-Globalist elite try to keep the books closed by enforcing the unwritten but very real regulations on behavior and thought control that are collectively known as The Rules of Politically Correctness. In doing so they are employing the same method used in Leftist one-party states such as North Korea, Cuba and California. Galileo and Copernicus are just two of the many people who were made to suffer for daring to think outside of the box and disregarding the PC rules of their day. Furthermore, reasonable certainly in the field of science is never attained by consensus. Virtually one hundred percent of "scientists" once believed that the world is flat and people like Copernicus and Galileo were made to suffer for taking exception to the orthodox view.

I saw the documentary just today. It's just a rather sleek docu, created by people who deny man-made climate change and from companies that are funded by oil companies and politicians. Almost every scientific claim they make is long and in depth overwritten by many (and I am talking hundreds) of other scientists and peer reviewed articles. ABout some of the previous reviews: no climate change is not a very recent matter, it's been around for decades, the Club of Rome already warned for such possible problems and since the eighties scientists are researching and writing about it. The 97 percent claims still stands. There are hundreds universities, high schools, research organizations, non-profit organizations, etc who have thousands of scientists working on the climate matter. All of the papers written in the last decade or so have been reviewed and nearly 97 % of those papers all claim that humans are responsible for the current change in climate. The change from the title 'global warming' to 'climate change' is simple and logic: there is not only a rise in temperature, but also change in precipitation, changes in wind (velocity, direction,...) and so on. Many more impacts then only a change in temperature. Climate change is not about 'believe' but about science and facts, and those all say: yes there is a man made climate change, and is here and now!

I saw Climate Hustle today and went in as someone without a specific opinion on the topic. I am not a scientist nor is anyone I know. To date, any info I have about climate change came from the electronic box in my living room, the one I'm typing on now or the many "fervent believers" I know, who are not scientists either. (But boy, they've got religion!)However, I have been on the front lines of business (which means: sales, marketing and business owner) for 35 years so I can smell a questionable pitch from a mile away. Which doesn't mean the pitch is bull, it means it's questionable.What has always troubled me about the climate change topic is: -- a) It came about SO quickly and with such desperately urgent action requested = Flag #1 -- b) The primary worldwide spokesperson is a politician = Flag #2 -- c) This former politician (and many other vocal proponents) has made enormous sums of money off the subject he's pitching so ardently = Flag #3 -- d) There is too much supposed consensus on a subject so complex AND a lack of open discussion and debate = Flag #4Okay people, never mind what the topic is -- if you're an adult, who thinks, then those first 3 items related to any pitch should give you a mighty pause.Regarding the movie: if you consider it as another part of your information gathering regarding this complicated topic then you'll learn some things. I didn't love the attempts to entertain and amuse but understand why the film maker felt the need (in America, most have to be entertained in order to get their attention) nor some of the choppy editing. Rather I would have enjoyed more in-depth interviews with some of the important scientists featured. But, their points were made and I was much relieved to witness that there are still some people in this world who will openly reverse course when they realize their initial viewpoint was wrong or inadequately supported. Those are courageous people.I felt the taped panel discussion at the end added to the effort. Whereas, I wouldn't have chosen Sarah Palin to be on it (she may have value to add but articulation is simply NOT her thing), I guess she provided some notoriety. The other two were the film maker and a climatologist and they offered worthy information.The movie is worth your time as food for thought and a counterpoint to all of the one-sided info coming our way in the mainstream media.

This is the first time I have ever seen IMDb attack the source of a movie. Certainly it's not common other than being common practice to attack those who disagree with the man made climate change scare.The whole climate change movement was once called global warming until that title was losing ground. (Hard to argue that climate changes, it changes every day, throughout year and throughout the centuries.) Why does the man made climate change panic need to be politically protected? Real science accepts challenge and offers the ability to recreate data. There have been deleted email, limits to the years viewed, black balling legitimate scientists that disagree and more.From a personal view, I can't be the only one who remembers the global cooling, pending ice age scare from a few decades back.Follow the money, lots of people getting rich and powerful by pushing this.Hoping to see this. Locally appearing one day with one showing.
