Very good points, loved it.If you attack the consensus, you're called a denier. The inference to being akin to a holocaust denier is not so subtle. Normally polite people resort to name calling, there is a collective hysteria on this issue.

Unfortunately the entire field of climate change has been hijacked by those with undermining political aspirations as well as those who simply want to cash in on the alarmism created by Hollywood and the mass media. In contrast to the constant flood of political and unscientific claims designed specifically to separate you from your money, this movie looks at the real science behind our ongoing climate change and attempts to briefly explain what has happened and what is likely to happen (climate-wise) in our future. Among other clarifications, the movie points out that the claim of what 97% of the scientists supposedly believe is a total fabrication based on very poor and misleading research. Numerous scientists including those from within the IPCC and NASA are interviewed to give their opinions and reasoning on the claimed catastrophic anthropogenic climate warming, which has undergone numerous name changes in reaction to their previous predictions being demonstrated to be nearly 100 percent wrong. Although the field is extensive and still being explored, Climate Hustle attempts to summarize and draw the main features of what we know so far together and present the facts in a manner which will inform but not overwhelm the viewer. In short, our climate future looks good. However, if those pushing the political man-made warming agenda have their way, our financial future will not be as bright. As an interesting overview, Climate Hustle has done an amazing job.

Having had minimal exposure to the main arguments of climate skeptics I was excited to understand the other side of the story. The oft quoted idea that the "science is settled" when it comes to climate change is a contradiction of terms. By the very nature of the scientific process, nothing is settled or incontrovertible or otherwise beyond question. So it had always worried me how people spoke about climate change with the zealotry of the religious when the climate is, perhaps only second to the human brain, the most complex system known to science. The film dipped into important points such as the history of the Earth's climate, the questions that still surround the role that CO2 does or doesn't play in the greenhouse effect and the distortion and misrepresentation of data by politicians and the media. All these things were brushed upon but relevant data and case studies to back up the claims were missing or fleetingly referenced. Sweeping claims such as "we are in a CO2 deficit" and "the Earth in greener than ever" were made without qualification. Is crop production better than ever? Are forests thriving more than ever? What other factors could contribute to this? The graph depicting the concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere for the last billion years or so was deliberately misleading. Not least because the atmosphere of 500 million years ago could not support human life. Such graphics and claims, rapidly flashed on the screen then gone before relevant questions can be asked or answered, characterized the film from start to finish.The conspiratorial theme of the card hustle throughout was also tiresome and does climate skeptics no service. It comes with the implication that those who passionately advocate for climate change are being willfully dishonest or at least there are some great masterminds behind the hoax who are pulling the strings. This is where skepticism turns conspiratorial and an otherwise receptive audience is lost. I am sympathetic to the subject matter of the film. I've heard enough inconsistencies and issues in the mainstream climate change rhetoric to question its wisdom. This film introduced some interesting points but was not the well presented case I hoped it might be.

Remember the Global Warming Swindle from 2007? That turned out to be about as accurate as an episode of Ancient Aliens.Distorted partial facts, statistics out of context, sound bites edited just right and some ideologically motivated people trying to tell a barely coherent story.Climate Hustle is a lot like that, but with more conspiracies. Big Science is out to take away your right to drive a gas-powered car and Big Government will soon only let you crawl around in a golf cart!On top of that, the pinkos want to take control of the planet by installing a world government. This is just one of the first baby steps! Wake up sheeple!If you're into this sort of thing, knock yourself out and watch it, the risk of eye rolls and face palms not withstanding. (END OF RANT)
