If global warming is important to you, then you have to view this documentary. It presented many scientific facts that I had not heard anywhere else. For example, the ocean releases massive amounts of CO2 when heated (much like a carbonated soda releases gas when heated). Therefore, measuring the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere doesn't necessarily mean that CO2 is causing the warming. My eyes were opened to the fact that many different factors could be the cause of global warming, not just man-made CO2 emissions. I was also shocked to see how anti-global warming efforts could be costing the lives of millions of the most disadvantaged people on the planet by discouraging their access to plentiful energy. All of the "hot topics" are discussed including polar bear populations, CO2 emissions, sea levels, solar flares, and more. If you believe mankind should be a responsible steward of the Earth, then I highly recommend that you add this DVD to your knowledge base.

Millions of lives are at stake, especially in Africa. So is the economic stability of the world's most generous nation, the USA. This documentary combines interviews of highly qualified scientists--including PhD climatologists, PhD astrophysicist, PhD chemist, ecomomist and others--with footage from Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" and "The Great Global Warming Swindle" to show that signing onto the Kyoto Protocol is highly likely to HURT the poverty sticken and starving people who so desperately need the energy that Al Gore's radical environmentalist ideas would continue to withhold from them. Republicans and Democrats and ALL political backgrounds need to see and share this DVD.

This DVD is a thorough, clear and thoughtful representation of a real "hot button" political issue of our day. It was so refreshing to view a balanced, scholarly presentation that was not political in nature. Today it is so easy to get caught up in the politics of issues like "global warming" and become overly emotional, failing to glean an overall understanding of the consequences of our views, as well as of our actions. Thank you for the breath of fresh air in an environment of toxic, agenda-based rhetoric when it comes to "global warming".

I had always heard that it may not be CO2 emmisions that have raised the earth's temperature but sunspots. This DVD confirmed my suspicions and gave information in a more balanced approach than what I read in the newspapers.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film...it has revealed a lot of new and insightful information the lamestream media will not provide you.

I just saw this online at Answers In Genesis' website (http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/2009/04/22/go-truly-green-by-starting-with-genesis), and was impressed.

The producers have put together a well thought-out argument that we need to be very careful about implementing radical action to try to combat something ("global warming") that doesn't look like it is even a problem, much less a man-made problem.

This documentary will be of most interest to Christians, since it does contain a significant amount of material from a biblical perspective.

Just as the title implied "A scientific review of the data."
It is an execellent debunking of the view of "some scientist" mostly related to the United Nations.

oh dear me. is this seriously what people think is science? this is a wolf in pantomine sheep's clothing. possibly the worst documentary i have ever seen.

there is so much i could say about it. firstly, the contributors. roughly half of them work for organisations funded by exxon-mobil. hmm, suspect. christy and spencer are notoriously bad scientists. the others are effectively young earth creationists. to be a YEC you have to deny most of the scientific world [...]. therefore, they have absolutely no right to deny climate science from a scientific basis. they are methodologically flawed. they are also presuppositionally opposed to climate AGW based on received biblical beliefs. therefore, anything they say should be treated as highly dubious.

take the comments on polar bears actually increasing in number. they fail to see that in 1973 hunting laws meant that their numbers shot up massively, whilst still losing their habitat. their numbers are now heavily reduced, and they are endangered. [...]

almost every one of these guys is not in a good enough position, scientifically, to be able to make informed conclusions.

and the content. that's the funniest part. there is no science. they actually provide nothing. not a drop. only opinions and denial of other scientific positions. the sad thing is, people buy this, intellectually. they believe it, because it backs up their prejudged ideals. i could go on refuting every one of their points individually, but i have better things to do.

it's complete tripe. tripe. tripe. never, ever, ever buy this.

(PS the links have been replaced by parentheses and ellipses - suffice it to say I can back up the claims with real evidence!)

As an evangelical Christian and a scientist, I was alternately shocked, horrified, disgusted, infuriated, and ultimately ashamed as I watched this video. I am not sure how I made it to the end, but I did.

As someone intimately familiar with the science presented here--more so than some of the 'experts' they interview here--I can say with confidence that this video contains no more than a mis-mash of half-truths, lies, and red herrings.

As Christians I believe we have a commitment to truth in every aspect of our lives, even if it may appear to be in conflict with our personal opinions on politics. In making this video, the Answers in Genesis Institute and the people who appear in it have crossed far over that line; and if they are not ashamed of themselves--well, I am, on their behalf. What a witness to the world this is. With major relief organizations already struggling to cope with the effects of climate change on the dispossessed worldwide, the time to mistake political positions for Christ's teachings and hence justify the deliberate muddying of the waters on climate science has long past.

For those who are interested, much more balanced and well-informed perspectives on faith and the environment are available from organizations such as the National Association of Evangelicals and World Vision.

First, I can not stand Al Gore's movie... the science he states is mostly correct, but distorted.
Second, I can not stand any other politically motivated movie to counter Gore's movie, which this one is.

If one wants to watch an unbiased explanation, based solely on SCIENCE, then see the History Channel's "A Global Warning?". Pure science, that explains past global climates, the evidence used to find these past climates, and how these past climates are the used to create future climate models. The amount of information in the History Channel's movie, dwarfs the amount of information given here.

Understanding global warming does not mean someone is succumbing to the "liberals"... I fought in Iraq, and my degree is in Geology. I'm far from left-wing, but when pure science shows the way... it doesn't look good for us humans.

Remember, oil/coal comes from buried plant material... plant material that took CO2 out of the air a very long time ago... we are only replacing it, but the World's system's will need to balance themselves... can we handle a small temperature change, and anyone with doubts can watch "Little Ice Age, Big Chill" by the History Channel, that shows how the plagues (including the bubonic), mass (and multiple) famines wiped out the European population by only a temperature difference of 2-4 degrees.

The real concern is for another Permian extinction... why wait holding a match in a room that most people believe has natural gas leak in it?
