Channel 4 aired a program on Thursday 8th March called "The Great Climate Change Swindle", which claimed amoung other things that global warming is a enormous consipiracy. You can watch most of it here

It is sharp, slick, looks very scientific, and features some people who seem to know their stuff, but there are a few facts about the director of the film, Martin Durkin, that should makes us pretty suspicious.
Channel 4 had to issue a prime time apology for airing one of his last films - 'Against Nature?', as he had "misrepresented and distorted their views by editing the interview footage in a misleading way.". Perhaps he had learned his lesson, you might be thinking....sadly not. One of the scientists has already complained, saying his comments were taken out of context, and that the film was "grossly distorted" and "as close to pure propaganda as anything since world war two".
The wikipedia article for the Great Global Warming Swindle has a detailed rebuttal of every one of the scientific claims made in the film, which is very much worth reading if you want a clearer idea of the science, and have to face people who suggest that scientific uncertainty is still a reason for failing to act on climate change......

this gw is just another scam designed to consume your energies and attention that should focus on the real problems of the world, generated by people who put the love for power and material things above the love for their kind.
you have below the temperature records since 1880, as provided on the NASA, an organisation financed by the same people that spend 10 billion usd a year on gw issues. so this should support their claims. but it's not...
what you can see there is that from 1910 to 1940 the temperature raise was pretty much the same as in the last 30 years.
also you can see some significant decreases between 1940 and 1980, although in that period cars were much more polluting and fuel consuming than today. the industry was growing as always.
around 1900 there were about 1 billion ppl on this planet, now we are 6 billion, the growth is exponential, not linear, as the temperature growth.
so it's obvious the graphic doesn't follow at all the human race evolution, has nothing to do with it.
history shows indeed there were times when the British territories were enjoying pretty much same climate as southern Spain today and there was solid agriculture in Groenland.
i would sacrifice to the sea a few feet from the beaches and some polar ice to be able to grow oranges in my yard and see some poor kids smiling because the taxes weren't spent on bombs and false flags.
hundreds times more people die because of anti-gw politics than because CO2.
think for yourselves, don't let governmental media think for you!
